A man sent racist and threatening emails to six MPs, including one which urged David Lammy to "remember what happened to Jo Cox".

David William Hall, 72, of Wolverhampton admitted six counts of sending grossly offensive messages.

Emails were also sent to MPs Dominic Grieve, Anna Soubry, Nicky Morgan and Heidi Allen.

Hall, who also sent a email to Eleanor Smith calling for her to be put on a "banana boat", will be sentenced later.

Former education secretary Ms Morgan said the "threats of violence or death" crossed a line.

Ukip supporter Hall sent the emails last December, in the wake of a Brexit debate in parliament, the court heard.

One email, littered with capital letters and exclamation marks, was sent by Hall to four of the MPs after a parliamentary vote on an amendment to the EU Withdrawal Bill.

It had in the subject line: "Your back stabbing treachery" and read: "You deserve to be HUNG for your attack on our democracy yesterday."

The email concluded, in capitals: "May you burn in hell for eternity."

Prosecutor Matthew Brook said an email to Wolverhampton MP Eleanor Smith was sent after she made comments about the Black Country flag.

Mr Lammy and Ms Morgan attended court to give evidence against Hall when he entered his guilty pleas.

Speaking outside court Ms Morgan, Conservative MP for Loughborough, said: "MPs are of course subject to robust debate and scrutiny, which is what we should be.

"When things tip over into threats of violence or death, then I think a line has been crossed."

Falcon wrote:Sadly not. I suspect the reasons are that they just don't like one another and use any excuse to get into an argument.

Which banned user are you again?

You can disagree with people about their politics, but threats of violence are wrong and should be punished to the full measure of the law.

The other 1% will make a killing, and that's why they donated millions to make it happen.

Falcon wrote:I'm a Remain supporter but that figure is pure speculation and unlikely in the extreme.

UpTheBeehole wrote:It's based upon the age demographic which primarily voted for brexit, average life expectancy showing these people have less than 20 years to live, and the conservative estimates on when the UK might be getting itself back on an even keel after the clusterf*ck of leaving the EU happens next year.

Is it!? Really!!!

I do like the mediocre attempt at "abusing " me by giving me a new moniker.

After All, Very Accomidating Paul, they say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. So I'll take the complement Slack Paul, as you're now known, since your stretch in Strangeways. Due to non payment of the tv licence.

Cheers my, its like waving Woodbine in the Albert hall, friend.

He has recently found the word "Gammon" in his early hours internet trawling so expect that to appear more and more often, until a new favourite word replaces it.
