Edinburgh internet troll guilty of sending vile online messages to politicians

An Internet troll who was described as a “Tartan Jihadist” during a trial has been found guilty of sending threatening online messages to politicians George Galloway and Angus Robertson.

David Llewelyn posted a “disturbing” post on his Facebook page stating “If you ever see him [Mr Galloway] under a Union Jack with a Tory then please shoot him”.

Llewelyn also posted an explicit picture on the social media site of Mr Galloway’s face photoshopped onto an image of a man having sex with an animal.
