> Lucy Connolly, 42, whose husband serves on Northampton Town Council, pleaded guilty in September after posting the expletive-ridden message on X the day three girls were stabbed to death in July 2024.

> She was released from HMP Peterborough earlier after she was handed a 31-month prison sentence in October at Birmingham Crown Court.

Like this one? I mean this is not some hard to find secret.

Missing a piece of that?

>Connolly, from Northampton, called for "mass deportation now" and urged her followers on X to "set fire" to hotels housing asylum seekers.

This is probably not considered protected speech in the US either

  • Lol there would be 40 million Americans in jail if this wasn't protected speech. Either way, doesn't matter I made this claim two ways:

    > the UK will put you in jail for tweets > people in the UK in jail for tweets deemed to be incitement to violence

    and there is no question whatsoever that what I said was true. Like it or hate it, I don't care, these are true statements.
