The arrest follows Fox’s appearance on Maajid Nawaz’s Warrior Creed podcast on Tuesday, during which he encouraged “mass removal of the surveillance state,” referring to London’s Ultra Low Emission Zones (ULEZ) cameras that monitor cars and charges drivers fines if their vehicles don’t meet certain emissions standards.
An activist group that calls themselves the “ULEZ Blade Runners” have vowed to remove “every single one” of the Automatic Number Plate Recognition cameras used within the ULEZ, with one member telling MailOnline they have already “snipped,” damaged, or removed at least 200 ULEZ cameras.
