He said: “I’m going to kill JK Rowling with a big hammer.

“JK Rowling is so horrible and I hate her so much.”

In a message to Labor MP Rosie Duffield, also opposed to trans reforms, he said: “I will kill Rosie Duffield with a big gun. I hate her so much.”

Mullen, of Manchester, admitted two counts of sending a communication containing a threatening message.

He was released on bail to be sentenced on June 4.

Westminster Chief Magistrate Paul Goldspring said: “You will receive credit for your early guilty plea.

“I accept that you entered at the first possible opportunity.

“The threats are so serious that I am considering immediate custody.

“I do not know anything about you.

“I need to discover the motivation for your offense.”
