These sentences are the wrong way around, there is something very wrong with the UK.
I partly got the impression for the JSO 4 year terms was decided on their behaviour in court too. So not just for planning to disrupt the motor way but they were also contempt of court.
@zleap @kim_harding they weren’t sentenced for contempt as such, if I’ve understood correctly, but the judge said he was taking their disruption of proceedings into account when passing his outrageous sentences
