Priti Patel lashed out at grotesque attacks on police by anti-vaxxers and Kill The Bill protesters today, branding it an attack on the fabric of our society .

Police came under attack as a gathering of thousands of vaccine deniers descended on the central London landmark in April to protest about restrictions designed to lave thousands of lives.

Lissie Harper, the widow of Pc Andrew Harper
The widow of Pc Andrew Harper has said she is “not going to stop” with her campaign to get the law changed in his name, saying it is needed “now more than ever”.
Lissie Harper wants to see the introduction of Harper’s Law – a mandatory life sentence for those who kill emergency workers due to a criminal act.
Appearing on ITV’s Good Morning Britain (GMB), Mrs Harper said she hoped Home Secretary Priti Patel would “continue to show her support” for the campaign when she speaks at the Police Federation of England and Wales conference later on Wednesday.
