A Brexit supporter jailed for harassing former Remainer MP Anna Soubry has appeared in court accused of breaking Covid rules – insisting the virus was ‘made up’ and her ‘real world trumps your fantasy’.
Amy Dalla Mura, 57, was charged with breaching coronavirus laws when she attended an anti-lockdown rally at Hyde Park, central London, on 15 November.
Wearing a lime green jumper and using a crutch, she announced as she arrived at Westminster Magistrates Court ‘I was jailed last Christmas for telling Anna Soubry she was a traitor’.
She then interrupted Magistrate Claire Harris repeatedly during her latest hearing.
Dalla Mura insisted: ‘I’m in a real world and you’re in a fantasy world and my real world trumps your fantasy.

‘I haven’t committed any common law offence so I shouldn’t be here.
‘I am claiming my human rights in a common law jurisdiction, I’m not part of statutes, do you not understand I was kidnapped.
‘I’m from 2019 actually before everyone forgot how to get sick.
‘Apparently having a cold is a deadly plague and it’s rubbish, it’s made up..
‘You’re talking to me you’re not listening to me.
‘I will not participate in this exercise.’

Dalla Mura, along with former Enfield Tory councillor William Coleshill, 25, denied participating in an outdoor gathering without a reasonable excuse.
They are both charged with being in Speakers Corner, Hyde Park, on November 15.
Coleshill was suspended from the Conservative party in 2018 after blaming ‘mass migration’ for putting pressure on UK schools and asking if a family brought ‘a classroom with them’ when they entered the country.
Reclining on a chair in front of the dock in a grey suit with a pencil tucked behind his ear, he told Magistrate Claire Harris: ‘I’ve been waiting for you all day’.
Dalla Mura, of Hove, and Coleshill, of Enfield, deny participating in a public gathering and were both granted unconditional bail ahead of their separate trials at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on May 25 next year.
She complained that she wouldn’t be available on that date, while Coleshill quipped: ‘And there was me thinking I was going to get my hair done that day’.
Dalla Mura had targeted Ms Soubry as the former Conservative MP gave an interview to BBC Newsnight at Westminster’s central lobby in March last year.
She also left Ms Soubry ‘rattled’ when she yelled questions and refused to leave during a question-and-answer session at the Radisson Blu Edwardian Hotel in Bloomsbury several weeks earlier.
She was convicted of harassing Ms Soubry and jailed for 28 days last December 16.
Dalla Mura was also banned from contacting her either directly or indirectly for three years.
