I understand that she was advised to do that by her lawyer in order to get a plea /probation but that didn’t happen .. by all accounts she was not well advised and as a very unusual circumstance not expected to receive a sentence worse than a man that disposed of a dead body and stole his money for two years until the body was found in a freezer .., it’s beyond harsh for an outburst stemmed from extreme emotion … in my opinion ….

Criminals never expect to receive punishment for their crimes

Can’t do the time, don’t do the crime

The fact she plead guilty means she was guilty

I have no time for the crocodile tears of criminals

Helen Gay's avatar

But there are punishments to fit the crime and this is excessive … she didn’t even realise it was a crime when she posted the tweet ..

At the whim of the Great Dictator

I don't think I'd ever been so angry about anything in my life... This is the personification of two tier justice... Why is Gary Lineker not been banged up... Why are kneecap not being charged. Why is that Ricky whatever is bloody name is still out on bail. Lucy Connoly should literary adjust walked out her front door and beat somebody up.. she with a spent a weekend inside and be out by Monday. There has to be an uprising against this system. Against the judges and against the politicians who have got us here. Why is Kier Starmer still at liberty having spread false news about far right riots which the police found no evidence for. That alone stirred up hatred. Why is he not sitting in the cell right now?

And what happened to those men at the airport who assaulted police officers? Did they ever get sent to prison?

Barbaric, inhuman, disgusting. Surely this heart-breaking case can be taken to a higher court? I am so sick of seeing Keir Starmer strutting around the EU hugging and kissing his pals while he is devastating our country.

They reportedly quaffed a lot of taxpayer funded champagne afterwards

They are using her as a scapegoat and should be prosecuted by the International court of justice for human rights violations.

Very, very sad. I have no confidence in the justice system after this. Huw Edwards walks free and Lucy is treated like this.

Donna's avatar

Only vulnerable children were harmed in the case against Huw Edwards. We already know that children are not protected under the law. Migrants, on the other hand, are protected under the law and although none were harmed, they were mentioned! That’s all it takes!

Here's a thought. Given Prime Monster Stormtrooper Starmin is so "pro-ECHR" - Can we not make use of that court on human rights grounds.

Right to FAMILY LIFE for a start!!!

I imagine there may be a legality around the above and often wondered WHY Tommy's legal team never took the case to Europe?

Is this a possibility for Lucy?

Joyce Martin's avatar

Yes i would like to know if Lucy's case can be heard at ECHR.

No one is thinking that waiting until 2029 is an option. He needs to go

We are all in tears.

Keir Starmer is throwing our once great nation away, he will not be satisfied until we are classed as a third world country. This is a cruel, heartless thing to do to a mother who said what we were all thinking at the time of these senseless murders & she wasn't wrong. I am looking forward to the next general election & seeing Reform take more power. We have just celebrate VE day, what was all of that for? Why did our grandparents fight to protect our country & Europe just for someone like Starmer to trample all over our right to free speech?

Patrick Young's avatar

The thing is that Starmer will be emboldened by this and the threshold for locking people up for thought crime is cranked down every day. If he keeps getting away with it then what's going to stop him?

An election or a revolution. As a revolution isn’t going to happen (other than the invasion he’s welcoming) it’s going to take the ballot box which is the right way to deal with a monster like Starmer. Show him we at least believe in due process. Don’t forget this feeling when it comes to choosing the next government. I’d like to see him locked up for this disgusting treatment of a harmless person who should never have pled guilty.

Hilary more than one question's avatar

💯, show this pathetic man at the ballot box, remember this feeling of utter rage and translate it into the thing that will hurt him most, democracy! Well said TM 🙂👍

KJE's avatar

A huge miscarriage of justice in my opinion, just shows the true nature of our criminal justice system and where it's headed!

Alsy HS2's avatar

Absolutely disgusting state of affairs, who runs this country? Starmer needs removing asap together with the rest of his cronies.

Nigel Lacey's avatar

Shame on you Starmer You are a sickening, disgusting individual who couldn't run a bath, let alone our great country. You have shamed yourself and our legal system. Poor Lucy...

Catherine's avatar

I am absolutely disgusted that this woman is still in prison. He is not only punishing the mother but also the child. I cannot believe how corruption has entered the courts. This woman should not have gone to prison in the first place. It seems to me that there must be lots of corruption going on in this government. What is it are you trying to prove Starmer ? and who are you trying to prove it to ? You are selling out the UK 🇬🇧 to whom and why ? Non of this surprises me with two tier, two faced Starmer and there is worse to come from the party of clowns. Why were the met police being trained to target anyone with a St George Flag ? Why are Ukrainian men targeting you ? What is it you don't tell us ? What a disgusting country i live in. You are a disgrace.
