A councillor accused of making Islamophobic comments on social media said she had received death threats.
Beverley Dunlop, a Conservative member of Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council, said she had three phone calls on Wednesday night from an unknown man, threatening to decapitate her.
The council said it was “very alarmed” and Dorset Police said it was trying to trace the person who made the calls.
Earlier this month her posts were ruled not to have breached conduct rules.
In one Facebook post, the Moordown ward councillor suggested banning mosques and, in another, claimed fundamentalists were “hiding in plain sight in the Muslim community”.
‘Out of context’
Independent investigator Tim Darsley said she had been acting in a personal capacity.
Members of the council’s standards committee accepted the report but condemned the “unacceptable” remarks.
The councillor said her comments had been taken out of context….
For this, she is now receiving death threats. Such threats and actual murder for violations of the Sharia prohibition of criticism of Islam will become more commonplace in Western society, every time dhimmis dare to step out of line.
