Britain's first female Sikh Member of Parliament receives threatening e-mail, heightens security

London: Britain's first female Sikh Member of Parliament, Preet Kaur Gill, said she has beefed up her security after receiving an e-mail warning.


The e-mail warning read: " Watch your back."

Speaking to GB News, she said,  “It was very direct. It's a worry because I'm with my daughters in the constituency all the time. My family lives there. It really puts into context the kind of job that you do."

"It's tough enough as it is, but then when you're faced with that, there's very little support," the Labour MP for Edgbaston told GB News.

"This latest direct threat has really worried and concerned me,' she said.

"As a woman, when you put yourself forward and you want to address injustices and you care about issues that affect your constituents, you’re then faced with people that think it's okay to say this sort of stuff to you," she said.

Gill said she was shocked that the person who sent the email had done so from a legitimate account with a genuine email address.

"I could not believe that this person used their place of work email to actually make that threat,” she continued.

"Normally most people would probably use an alias, or try different ways of sort of creating a hate campaign. I've had huge amounts of hate campaigns created against me through WhatsApp groups too," she said.
