Man admits hurling abuse at Broxtowe MP Anna Soubry after calling her a Nazi

A man has admitted insulting Remain-supporting MP Anna Soubry by calling her a Nazi.

James Goddard, 30, filmed himself hurling abuse at the former Conservative MP after claiming she was a "traitor" for betraying the country's vote to leave the EU in 2016.

At Westminster Magistrates Court on Friday, Goddard admitted one charge of intent to cause the Broxtowe MP harassment, alarm or distress, using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour, or disorderly behaviour.

He also admitted one racially aggravated public order offence towards a police officer.

He will be sentenced on Monday.
