PM: Threats to our democratic processes have crossed a line
In an exclusive interview, the Prime Minister tells Channel 5 News' Andy Bell that threats to our democratic processes have crossed a line.
While discussing events over the last week, and when questioned about his view on whether Lee Anderson’s comments about Sadiq Khan were Islamophobic, Rishi Sunak said he agreed with people’s frustrations that the aggressive and intimidating behaviour of some is threatening the UK’s democracy.
