George Osborne wants police to investigate after 'poison pen' email on eve of his wedding
Former chancellor George Osborne has called in police to investigate alleged online harassment after a so-called"poison pen" email was sent to guests due to attend his wedding this weekend.
Friends say the email - which has since been posted online - is part of a"long-term campaign" of abuse in which an individual has"made up rumours" and engaged in"cyber bullying".Mr Osborne is due to marry his former Treasury adviser Thea Rogers in a ceremony in the Somerset town of Bruton on Saturday afternoon.
It is understood the couple believe they know the identity of the person behind the email - which was sent to several politicians and journalists on Thursday afternoon. The individual is not thought to be directly connected to Mr Osborne, and their specific motivation is also unclear.
