TikTok's 'Banter Queen' campaign of abuse, Merseyside's 'Selling Sunset' house and parking tickets row

Good morning, these are the latest ECHO headlines today.

TikTok's 'Banter Queen' threw paint at Chelsey Harwood's home during campaign of abuse

A TikTok celebrity threw paint at reality TV star Chelsey Harwood's house as a feud escalated between the pair.

Elsa Frost amassed thousands of views as “Banter Queen” but was jailed after sending a series of abusive messages to Ms Harwood, who first rose to fame on TV show Desperate Scousewives.

Sefton Magistrates' Court heard Frost posted a series of offensive videos on her TikTok account between January 1 and February 23 last year.

The pair had been involved in an escalating feud over an extended period, with both posting videos criticising each other.

Ms Harwood is transgender and in a number of the videos, which have now been removed, 39-year-old Frost used transphobic language towards her.

The court heard she also went round to an address where Harwood lived and threw paint at the door.

It is believed as many as 18 parking tickets received by city Labour councillors were wrongly cancelled by an officer who is no longer employed by the authority.

Liberal Democrat leader, Cllr Richard Kemp said he understands that some senior officers and their friends had also 'used the same route' to get tickets cancelled.
