An investigation has been launched after Stella Creasy’s office in Walthamstow, north-east London, was vandalised <\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n
\n

A Labour parliamentary candidate has told vandals “you don’t intimidate me” after the window and door of her office were smashed. <\/p>\n

Walthamstow candidate Stella Creasy took to social media to post images of what police described as “entirely unacceptable” damage.<\/p>\n

The Metropolitan Police said the office on Orford Road, in the north-east London constituency, was targeted between 03:10 and 03:30 BST.<\/p>\n

An “urgent” investigation was under way, the force added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Ms Creasy, who won the seat in the last four general elections, called for the “strongest penalties for such an anti-democratic attack”.<\/p>\n

Addressing those responsible for the damage, she wrote on X<\/a>: “You don\u2019t intimidate me and you don\u2019t belong in the political process.<\/p>\n

“Same as those circulating malicious and false leaflets.<\/p>\n

“Police already on this to find you – will press for the strongest penalties… and I know Walthamstow won\u2019t be cowed or influenced by your violence either.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
