A video of London Mayor Boris Johnson getting heckled by an angry mob in Bristol has been posted online.

In the short clip members of the crowd shouted at the politician calling him "Tory scum" and saying yesterday's visit was a "marketing exercise".

In response to the jeers, Johnson swore at the hecklers labelling them "lefty f*****s".

Johnson was visiting the city in order to support the Tory candidate for the Bristol mayoral election Geoff Gollop and Ken Maddock, the Conservative candidate running for Police Commissioner.

He was later seen trying to pacify the protesters and encouraging them to vote for Gollop and Maddock but to no avail.
