The former Labour leader has kept tight-lipped about the incident on social media, despite sending multiple tweets on other topics since the protesters targeted Sir Keir. MPs from all political parties were quick to condemn the mob last night.<\/p>\n

Activists could be heard screaming “traitor” as they targeted the Holborn & St Pancras MP.<\/p>\n
