Town councillor who asked probing questions about 300 migrants in a hotel and whether local veterans could get the same level of support is 'reported to police' for 'stirring up racial hatred'
A town councillor who asked questions about 300 Afghans put up in a local hotel was 'reported to police for stirring up hate’.
John Edwards has also been placed under ‘investigation’ by a ‘monitoring officer’ at Bracknell Forest Council in Berkshire.
The elected councillor began asking questions in April, questioning whether the large number of new arrivals would affect local residents on the housing waiting list.
But instead of getting answers, Councillor Edwards said he was accused of ‘inciting’ hate and spreading ‘misinformation’ against an ethnic group.
The Free Speech Union has now taken up his case, calling it a ‘chilling’ example of democracy being suppressed.
