Labour MP criticises ‘stupid’ ITV show dramatising neo-Nazi plot to kill her

Rosie Cooper accused the broadcaster and campaign group Hope not hate of using her as a ‘marketing tool’ for The Walk In, starring Stephen Graham, which chronicled the failed plot to assassinate her

A Labour MP has criticised ITV’s decision to turn a plot to murder her into a “stupid, stupid, stupid” drama series.

Rosie Cooper, the MP for West Lancashire, accused the broadcaster and anti-fascism campaign group Hope not hate (Hnh) of using her as a “marketing tool”.

She urged ITV and the advocacy group to donate all the money generated from the TV series to the Jo Cox Foundation, which was set up following the murder of Labour MP Jo Cox in 2016.

The Walk-In, which launched on October 3, chronicles the story behind the neo-Nazi plot and how it was foiled by Hope not hate.
