A sting operation by online paedophile hunters has led to the arrest of an ex MP on suspicion of child sex offences.

Former Labour defence minister Ivor Caplin was MP for Hove from 1997 to 2005 and was arrested on Saturday in Brighton. Videos shared on social media showed the 66-year-old, wearing a bright red hat and a black top, in handcuffs and surrounded by two officers.

A Sussex Police spokesman said: "We are aware of footage circulating on social media showing a man in Brighton being detained on suspicion of engaging in sexual communication with a child. Officers can confirm a local 66-year-old man was arrested on Saturday January 11 and currently remains in custody.

“'This is an ongoing and active investigation.”

Self-proclaimed paedophile hunters live streamed a sting operation and the moment of the arrest, which lasted around 30 minutes and has been widely shared on social media. It has already had 36,000 views and around 3,000 comments.

Mr Caplin reportedly denies all allegations against him.

It is believed he was suspended from the Labour Party last year and is said to have denied any wrongdoing. Caplin held two Government posts during his time in office, as assistant Government whip and a junior defence minister and minister for Veterans at the Ministry of Defence.

The former Hove MP represented the constituency between 1997 and 2005. In 2001, he became an assistant Government whip and then a junior defence minister and minister for Veterans at the Ministry of Defence.

GB news is "right wing" news for loser faggots who are afraid of admitting race is real. They spend half their time hurling themselves against the rocks in devotion to the "Im not racist, I like everyone!" gods.

So they will always hire a bit of everything so they can scream how they are not racist and how racists are evil and racism is the worst thing in the world.

At least its a little bit more right wing than the BBC etc.

If you go too hard in the UK, I expect you get your outlet shut down.

GB News has proved controversial in the UK since it was launched in June 2021.

While newspapers are free to express views as they wish, broadcasters in the country are required meet strict broadcasting rules and demonstrate "due impartiality".

The channel, many of whose hosts and guests have voiced controversial views, conspiracy theories and misinformation, has been the subject of multiple investigations by Ofcom into areas such as whether its programming has met the regulator's broadcasting code.

I saw a guy post on Xitter last night about the police contacting him in regard to prosecution for reposting a Tweet made by the pedophile politician. Some woman had complained about him retweeting.
They're deliberately trying to make it an offence to document the crimes of Leftist pedophiles.

Since when does being a child molester in the UK government get you in trouble? Did he just forget to send his his fee for renewing his nonce license?

I am loving the ironic timing for some of this stuff.

Conspiracy lovers would say this was orchestrated, but i disagree. It is just bad timing for this guy.

The gov knows they've fucked up and people want answers, but they can let them know it's a migrant problem. So, this "white" dude shows up and they finally have their scapegoat.

Don't doubt the main reason they aren't investigating is bc they're up to their necks too.
