A racist internet troll has been found guilty of harassing a Labour MP with a series of anti-Jewish rants sent after the jailing of a fellow far-right extremist.

Joshua Bonehill-Paine, who turned 24 on Wednesday, wrote five hate-filled blogs about Luciana Berger, the MP for Liverpool Wavertree, after Garron Helm was sent to prison for four weeks in October 2014.

He illustrated his posts with offensive pictures, including a rat with Berger’s face superimposed on it.

Bonehill-Paine hailed the “Filthy Jew Bitch Campaign” led by US white supremacist site Daily Stormer as “fantastically successful” after the MP was sent 2,500 tweets.

I chose to leave out the most sickening racist remarks contained in the article.

This "effort" was assisted by the US website The Daily Stormer.

1. "I chose to leave out the most sickening racist remarks contained in the article."

Yet you chose to include "Filthy Jew Bitch" for some reason.

There are a hell of a lot of disgusting trolls online, with anti-semitic ones being particularly numerous it seems.

6. Bonehead outdid himself this time.

Let's hope he gets a substantial sentence in addition
to the time he is currently serving.

7. 2,600 harassment tweets. A taste of what republicans plan to use for any Ds running in future

elections. Call a target trying to run for any election local, state or federal and they'll be buried with a flood, spams & spams of 'free speech' hate group tweets and thousands of fake news lies.

9. a suggestion is to make spam laws, or add anti-spam scripts where deplorables can't spam anymore

can't spam because anti-spam script 'disappears' more then 5 tweets an hour and doesn't allow bots, that instantly retweet accounts. Or even charge a penny? 10 cents? a tweet, for more than 20 tweets a day.
