BLM organisers in Cheshire threatened in local Facebook group

Organisers of Black Lives Matter protests in Sandbach, Cheshire, have been threatened and doxxed - subjected to the malicious spread of private information - in a Facebook group for which one of the town's councillors was an administrator.

Comments in the Facebook group, Sandbach Sarcastic Society, which has more than 5,300 members, included details of where one organiser was said to live. One person suggested sending the details to the English Defence League, while another posted a picture of the Ku Klux Klan.
