DUP MP Gregory Campbell receives ‘serious death threat’

POLICE have warned DUP MP Gregory Campbell of a “serious death threat” against him.

It is not known who has made the threat.

The East Londonderry MP is understood to be liaising with police following the threat which comes after he again attacked the Irish language and hit out at the current political talks.

The PSNI have refused to comment about the threat.

Speaking at the DUP’s party conference at the weekend, the Waterside man said: “On behalf of our party let me say clearly, and slowly so that Caitroina Ruane and Gerry Adams understand, we will never agree to an Irish language Act at Stormont and we will treat their entire wish list as no more than toilet paper.

“They better get used to it.”
