Man charged with assaulting Matt Hancock on Tube train
The Independent says A 61-year-old man has been charged with assaulting former health secretary Matt Hancock on the London Underground.
Geza Tarjanyi, from Leyland, Lancashire, was charged with common assault and two public order offences, British Transport Police said.
The MP who appeared on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! is understood to have been unhurt in the alleged attack on Tuesday, which his spokesman described as an “unpleasant encounter”.
Police said they received a report of a man being “assaulted and harassed” at the station next to the House of Commons before 9am.
A spokesman for Matt Hancock added “this sort of behaviour is a rare occurrence” and stressed the “importance of shutting down baseless misinformation which causes so much harm”.
