National MP Simeon Brown has received death threats that he says is a result of his criticism of Green Party co-leader Marama Davidson's visit to the Hamilton Mongrel Mob.

"I've had a number of threats come through basically saying they're going to shoot me," the Pakuranga MP said.

"This is obviously incredibly concerning, and I've taken that to the police, who are investigating."

He joined Heather du Plessis-Allan to talk about his reaction to the messages.
