Cllr Elena Bunbury, of Holme Valley Parish Council, claimed the online attacks aimed at her had reached a “new level of grim” after she shared her pro-Brexit views on BBC Question Time.
She said vicious trolls had threatened to share revealing pics from her Instagram account.
But Ms Bunbury beat them to it, posting them on Twitter with the caption: “Following my appearance on the #FBPE are sending death threats, labelling me a stupid sl*t, posting private photos of me and outing me as bisexual online.
“So I thought Id beat them to it.

The racy pics received over 2,000 likes in the space of just a few hours.
She has since contacted West Yorkshire Police to report one of the tweets which she said amounted to a death threat.
Clr Bunbury has also blocked the person responsible and reported it to Twitter.

She told the Mirror she would not name her abusers publicly, adding: "I don't want to encourage bullying, even if they are vile.
"People have been asking if I am okay and saying 'well done for being vocal and pro-Brexit."
