But it's always been a crime to exhort others to break the law.
And that's what she did- exhorted others to commit murder.
I doubt that law will change.
I still say she needs to tread carefully as she is out on license. And if anyone had set fire to a hotel and people died she would have probably been done for joint enterprise.
This wasn't a case of saying send them back or being angry about the whole asylum problem, it was a direct exhortation to others to commit a crime and it was re-tweeted 100s of times and seen by 100,000s of people. Very dicey.
I mean I doubt you would like it if someone told others on social media to firebomb your home. |

Nigel is brilliant at the art of new politics - simplifying; appealing to simple minds; manipulating the media (far better than the new Green leader, Roman Polanski); getting headlines. Can he achieve anything? I've said No he can't. But I start to wonder.
Simple minds?
That's a slur on millions of your fellow countrymen and women and illustrates the problem with political discourse in this country that still persists. To dismiss many millions of people as merely gullible, easily led simpletons. |

He hasn't done himself any favours at all by bringing in Nadine Dorries. The woman out gimps the gimpess Andrea Jenkyns. Farage has the gift of the gab but there is no substance whatsoever. He has no clear vision, no solid policies, no invention, no real ability. The snake oil salesman dodging the bullets and the bar room brawls with nothing to offer but the cloth of a well pressed monologue, a few spangly trinkets, and Jenkyns his magical Assistant complete in sequins and a voice that would make the White Cliffs of Dover book a flight to France. But the reason we are talking about him? Yep. Starmer. A truly awful Prime Minister. |

Indeed Hedda and it is a global human problem. Very few seem to want to think beyond the three word tabloid headline. No time. No inclination. Go for the simple slogan. |
