Tory MP Andrea Leadsom has become the latest Brexiteer to be subjected to a death threat from a source using the pseudonym “the real 48 percent.” Leadsom joins six others who received threats.
The Cabinet minister was a prominent member of the Leave campaign during the 2016 EU referendum. She posted a copy of the sinister letter on Twitter, and labelled her antagonists “cowards.”
“Pretty despicable whoever sent me this,” she wrote online. “We live in a democracy — death threats because you don’t agree? And unsigned? Coward…”
The typed letter reads: “If you attempt to take away part of someone’s identity, there are consequences.
“We have watched as you have led us to the edge of the abyss. We will watch no longer. You have taken lives on our side. Now we will take lives on yours. We are coming for you.”
The MP has reported the threat to the police.
Leadsom is not the only one to have received such threats: At least six prominent Leave donors have received similar letters, with at least three filing official complaints with the police.
