“Two-Tier Justice At Its Very Worst” | Calls To Release Mother Jailed Over Southport Social Posts

8 Apr 2025 LONDON
Senior Conservatives, including former Prime Minister Liz Truss, are calling for the release of Lucy Connolly, jailed for a social media post after the Southport murders.

Suella Braverman called the 31-month sentence “excessive” and claimed Connolly was a victim of a “two-tier justice system.”

Connolly, a childminder, admitted to inciting racial hatred after writing on X about deporting asylum seekers and burning hotels. She deleted the post within hours, but it had already been widely shared.

She’s been in prison since October and is appealing her sentence, arguing the judge misjudged its severity and didn’t fully consider her personal trauma, including the loss of her young son.

Kevin O’Sullivan speaks with Chairman of The Great British PAC, Ben Habib.
