Benjamin Clarke, 31, admitted threatening to kill Bishop Auckland MP Sam Rushworth twice. In August, Clarke sent a message saying he wanted to harm Rushworth at his next public appearance.

Clarke initially applied to withdraw his guilty pleas but later decided not to proceed. He has been remanded in custody pending sentencing on May 12.
