George Galloway has reported a death threat to Streatham police after a right-wing extremist posted a message on Facebook.

The former Bethnal Green and Bow MP contacted police following a message by a member of the English Defence League - which allegedly read ‘Kill George Galloway’.

A man was arrested and bailed on July 29 on suspicion of threats to kill and misuse of communications. He has been ordered to return to police on December 10.
