Lucy Connolly has hit out at the judges who rejected her appeal against a 31-month prison sentence, branding them “cruel and twisted” after they refused to reduce her jail time. The sentence was handed down over a controversial post she made on X (formerly Twitter) during the Southport riots last year — a moment she now says has torn her away from her daughter for even longer.
During the chaos in Southport, Lucy took to social media and posted: “Mass deportations now, set fire to all the fing hotels full of the b***s for all I care, while you’re at it, take the treacherous government and politicians with them.” The post racked up over 300,000 views before she deleted it just four hours later, reported the Express.
