'Try Putting This in Your Pocket': Anti-Brexit Group Target Conservative HQ Over Child in Hospital Photo

The anti-Brexit campaign group Led by Donkeys targeted the Conservative Party headquarters in London with a big-screen video of Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s interview with ITV reporter Joe Pike in this new video, released on December 11.

Johnson’s interview, in which he would not look at a photo of a four-year-old boy lying on the floor of Leeds General Infirmary on Pike’s phone, was one of the most viral moments of the election campaign, with Pike’s video receiving over 11 million views on Twitter alone. During the interview, Johnson took Pike’s phone and put it in his pocket.

The picture was subject to false claims on social media that it was staged. Credit: Led By Donkeys via Storyful
