Well said Paul, I take it you don’t use the phrase “political prisoner” lightly. But I think you explain clearly that it’s an appropriate phrase to use in this situation. Seems similar to the case of the man who died in prison yesterday for another misjudged use of words, without and violence involved, also given almost 3 years.

I agree and it’s nice to see someone from the left give an honest appraisal. Having been a cop for 30 years and retired for 10 I see so many things in the law and justice arena that just don’t add up. I haven’t kept abreast of new laws, no need and I’m so pleased to be out but common sense should highlight to anyone that recent events and Court judgments seem to be swayed by an invisible influence. Two tier policing and sentencing is clearly visible to me, forces are led by DEI experts who’ve probably never felt a collar and the judiciary, well, pedophiles walk free yet words alone can lead to harsh sentencing. The truth may come out one day.
