The ‘Lion of London Bridge’ has been filmed spitting on a black man and ranting about ‘foreign c***s’ who ‘stink like shit’.

Roy Larner, 47, was hailed as a hero after he threw punches at the London Bridge attackers last month while shouting ‘Fuck you, I’m Millwall’. He was stabbed eight times, but survived the attack.

Now, footage from February has emerged of Larner shouting shocking racist abuse at a group of protesters in Elephant and Castle, south London.

He is seen spitting at a photographer, who is black, before shouting and swearing at him while walking his two large dogs.




After calling the group ‘foreign c***s’, Larner then yells ‘National Front’ repeatedly before shouting at a passing bus driver.

In the minute-long video, protesters are seen marching with placards and chanting: ‘Hey hey, ho ho, Trump and May have got to go.’

Larner approached them with his now-ex-girlfriend’s dogs, and said: ‘A band of foreigners, you c***s.’

As some shocked onlookers started to take photos, Larner walked up to a black photographer, told him ‘people like you stink like shit’, and spat at him.

He then launched into an expletive-laden racist rant.

‘Fuck off, shut up you c***, don’t take a picture of me,’ Larner said. ‘Wankers, people like you stink like shit. Foreigners, c***s, foreign c***s.’

The photographer replied: ‘Don’t spit at me.’

As the protesters started chanting ‘We fight back when racists attack’, Larner retreated – but not before insulting the crowd some more.

‘I fucked your mum, I fucked your mum,’ he shouted at the protesters and the photographer. ‘National Front, I’m part of them. Fuck off you black c***.’

Larner’s mum, who was with him at the time, has since said that the episode in Elephant and Castle is proof that he will ‘stand up to anyone’.

‘He was taking the dogs for a walk and was on his way back to his girlfriend’s,’ Phyllis, 78, said.

‘He gave them [the protesters] a mouthful. If he didn’t have the dogs I don’t know what he might have done, as you can imagine.

‘He doesn’t need a weapon, if you’ve got a good pair of hands then that is all you need.

‘He is certainly quite a character, he can be a bit of a handful.’
