A protester invaded the stage to cut off Jacob Rees-Mogg as he gave a speech at the National Conservatism conference.

Shortly after the Tory MP began speaking, a man joined him at the lectern and told the audience: "I would like to draw your attention to a few characteristics of fascism."

The protester was then bundled off the stage. After regaining the microphone, Mr Rees-Mogg said the conference was about free speech, before adding, "he can have his national loony convention next week".
