Is there a topic running on this old man who was jailed  recently for 2 years for protesting against immigration in the UK

 

Obviously he knew he had done the wrong thing but 2 years is a lot 

RIP 

 

He got 2 years and 8 months, for being abusive towards police. He also had a weird placard decrying the "deep state", and apparently referring to NASA!

 

He didn't actually physically do anything.

 

He suffered from diabetes and a severe heart condition.

 

By all accounts he was a confused abusive rather ill man with some unpleasant opinions.

 

He was sentenced, right at the high end of the scale, shortly after the Prime Minister (himself a former senior judicial figure - and with perhaps 10 years in office to go, a man with influence over judicial appointments and careers) expressed the opinion that such offences should attract the strictest penalties the law provides.

 

Meanwhile, in other news, pedophiles and people who kill through dangerous driving receive suspended sentences, apparent from the same judge? Violent criminals are released early from prison to provide space for the likes of Mr Lynch.

 

Brave new world perhaps?
