Suspended Labour councillor denies inciting violent disorder
Briefly

During a protest against far-right extremism, former councillor Ricky Jones allegedly incited violence, calling for protesters' throats to be cut, prompting legal actions.
The charges against Ricky Jones arise from his alleged remarks during an anti-fascist protest, where he is accused of encouraging violent disorder against identified 'Nazi fascists'.
The judge's ruling emphasized that Ricky Jones would have to clarify his defense stance by late October, with a trial scheduled for January.
Following the alleged incitement, Ricky Jones was suspended from the Labour Party, which condemned the statements made during the protest as completely unacceptable.
