Children's entertainer Sab Samuel was told not to bring their 'filth' to Liverpool
A drag queen was told they would be "cut up and thrown into the River Mersey" if they were to come to the city to work.
However, following the event announcement on social media, the post, and Aida’s messages, was flooded with hate and threats - which the ECHO has seen. “It does scare me but there isn’t a chance in hell that I wouldn’t perform because of the haters or because of threats.” “The safety of our staff and customers is our top priority. Here at Dorothys Diner we will always try and bring the best entertainment to Liverpool. All tickets will be refunded and we will offer all parents who have booked a free meal with their children.”Detective Sergeant Tracy O'Hara said: “We can confirm that we have received a report of a hate crime and we are speaking with the victim to offer our support.
Sab was inspired to create the persona of Aida H Dee to provide younger people with the kind of role model they did not have growing up. Sab, who has attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism, explained how their drag persona and playful name was an extension of their personality.
