Freeman said he considered the video to be a form of identity theft and that current legislation did not go far enough.
He added that he would now “use my time in Parliament to help legislate for the law that is needed”.
“If we allow deepfake AI identity theft to grow unchecked we will be encouraging damage to our democratic traditions of free speech, fair debate, democratic accountability and trust in our political system.
“As an MP I have an opportunity to do something about it.”
