POLICE have arrested a 61-year-old man over online threats against Tory MP Louise Mensch.
The Metropolitan Police said the man was arrested in Gloucester in connection with an investigation into “malicious communication and threats made via email and a social networking site”.
Mrs Mensch claimed earlier this week that “morons” had threatened her children by email.
