A local elections candidate in Swansea is being offered support from the police after she claims dead rats have been thrown into her garden and her dogs have been poisoned during the campaign.
Louise Thomas, 54, who is standing for the Conservatives in Mayals, claims to have been abused in the street, called at 3am and branded “a b***h”, and followed to work.
The former policewoman and mum-of-two said she was having to have police officers check on her and her property. A south Wales Police spokesperson confirmed they had a support package in place for Mrs Thomas. You can read more stories about Mumbles here.
