The incident took place last December when Mr Birnie saw a Jewish man walking down the street. Mr Birnie crossed the road and started shouting at the man, “Oi you go **** yourself. I’m going to kill all the Jews”. He then yelled about Jews having too many children before threatening the man saying “I will kill you and all the Jews.”
