Darren Jones – 2021 Comments on Violent Protest in Bristol

The comments made by Darren Jones, the Labour MP for Bristol North West, on 21 March 2021.

The scenes in Bristol this evening are completely unacceptable. You don’t campaign for the right to peaceful protest by setting police vans on fire or graffitiing buildings. Avon and Somerset Police were on duty today to facilitate a peaceful protest not to deal with criminal behaviour.
