"A #ReformUK mayoral candidate has described members of a #Jewish neighbourhood watch group as “cosplayers” and likened them to “#Islamists on horseback” in comments made after an attack on #ambulances run by a Jewish charity.

#ChrisParry, who remains #Reform’s mayoral candidate for #Hampshire despite a previous controversy in which he said #DavidLammy should “go home” to the #Caribbean, made the comments on Monday about #Shomrim, a group of volunteers who safeguard communities including #Orthodox Jewish families.

#Parry, a retired rear admiral, retweeted a post on X by #CatherineBlaiklock, a co-founder of the #Brexit party, hours after news of the attack on the ambulances in north #London emerged.

Shomrim works alongside #Hatzola, the charity #ambulance service that was targeted by #arsonists early on Monday morning and provides #emergency #medical response and transportation to #hospitals for both Jewish and non-Jewish people."
