A Labour MP has reported receiving a "possible threat to life" from a "far-right extremist" pictured loitering outside his constituency office.
Liverpool West Derby MP Ian Byrne has bolstered security following police advice after a potential threat to him, his family and his office staff.
Jewish community groups alerted him to vile comments by an individual on extremist websites, saying murdered Tory Sir David Amess "would not be the last MP to die".
This person was pictured outside Mr Byrne's office in Liverpool.
Conservative veteran Sir David was killed last year by Islamic State fanatic Ali Harbi Ali at a constituency surgery in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex.
Mr Byrne told the Mirror: "It was a real wake-up call. You just don't expect it to happen to you.
"Sometimes you forget you're an MP when you are out in the community just doing your job."
Mr Byrne, who has two teenage sons and a daughter in her 20s, said: "It was extremely upsetting with regards to everything about the family."
But he said it wouldn't stop him from doing the job he loves. "It won't stop me," he said.
“We're in the middle of a cost of living crisis. We have to try to assist people."
Sir David Amess was the second MP to be killed at an advice surgery in five years, after Labour MP Jo Cox was murdered in 2016 in her constituency.
Labour MP Stephen Timms was stabbed at a constituency surgery in 2010 but survived after undergoing emergency surgery.
Tory leadership hopeful Penny Mordaunt had her security bolstered after receiving a chilling death threat last month.
Police launched an investigation after a letter threatening to kill Ms Mordaunt and her family was delivered to her constituency office in Portsmouth.
In a statement, Mr Byrne said: “In June, I was contacted regarding a possible threat to the life of myself, family and office staff.
“A far-right extremist who had been posting vile threats to the Jewish community on extremist websites had also posted comments about the murder of Sir David Amess MP, saying he would not be the last MP to die.
"The individual was then photographed outside my office in West Derby.”
He thanked organisation in the Jewish community who flagged the threat to him, Merseyside Police and counter terror unit in Parliament for offering support to ease "our very real fears".
Mr Byrne said his office would resume face-to-face surgeries from September, but added: “The security of my team must be paramount, and our previous procedures will sadly need to change.”
He said: “Once again, thank you to all involved in supporting myself, family and staff during a difficult time.
"This is a sobering reminder of the dangers faced by all who work in the public eye for a society free from division and hate.”
Mr Byrne told the Mirror he had been inundated with supportive messages from colleagues after revealing what had happened.
Jarrow MP Kate Osborne tweeted: “I’m so sorry to hear that you’ve had to deal with this. My best wishes and solidarity go to you, your team and your family, Ian.”
City of Durham MP Mary Kelly Foy said: “Oh Ian, this is awful [and] wholly unacceptable. Sending solidarity & best wishes to you, your family [and] team.”
Former frontbencher Dawn Butler tweeted: “Solidarity to you Ian. You are an excellent MP. I’m proud that Brent has adopted your right to food campaign."
Merseyside Police have been contacted for comment.
