A softly-spoken heckler was removed from the auditorium hosting Suella Bravmerman's speech at the Conservative Party Conference, despite causing next-to-no disruption.
ITV News Political Editor Robert Peston said: "This is not a great look for the party of free speech. I’ve seen heckling in my time and I am not sure this meets the threshold." He was approached by officials and police when he heckled Ms Braverman after she said ministers must challenge the “poison” of talk of subjects such as white privilege and gender ideology.After being removed from the conference centre, Mr Boff told ITV News Ms Braverman is a "bully".
He added: "I was born and brought up that when you see a bully you challenge them and that's what I was doing and I challenged her."
