"Chief whip of Reform UK Lee Anderson on GB News said “British working class lads out throwing stones and damaging things aren’t far right thugs” He goes on to downplay their actions, saying they have “probably had one too many and got involved with the wrong crowd” Anderson said “we all do daft things when we are young” and feels the rioters should not be jailed" x.com/GBNewsSpin/status/1820852993127838169?t=7jOmkBpIZkOe2zwuuyfNVQ&s=19Surely this is indefensible?

An even playing field would be nice, all thugs should be treated equally. Sadly it's not going to happen under this government.

Well there's a suprise (Not) Literally defending arson, looting, criminal damage, attempted murder, attacking police officers and riot Well have we got news for you Lee Anderson - Not one of the adults so far to come before the courts have been remanded on bail, all of them have been remanded in jail for sentencing at a Crown Court. The Justice system is going to deal very harshly with these people, and even first time offenders are heading for jail sentences, despite some of them breaking down in court and blubbering and crying. The CPS, our police forces and the Home Office are going to make examples of them in order for others to think carefully about indulging in such behaviour.

I completely agree, Lee Anderson doesn't apparently.

Anderson is of course right. Jailing these people, when so many others have been treated so leniently for so long, would simply inflame the situation and confirm, beyond any doubt, that we have a two tier system.

Yes, he's woefully out of touch: Should those taking part in the recent riots receive sentences that are harsher than usual for that kind of crime? Should be harsher: 49% Should be about the same as normal: 39% Should be more lenient: 4% x.com/YouGov/status/1820496786580230475?t=tyacn_WwuuUbV4mGariArA&s=19
