Lucy Connolly: Ex-Tory Councillor’s Wife Faces Wait Over 'Racial Hatred' Tweet Appeal
The wife of a former Conservative county councillor who was jailed after an online rant about migrants on the day of the Southport attacks faces a wait to see if her appeal against a 31-month sentence has been successful.
Lucy Connolly was jailed last October after admitting making the post on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The post, which she later deleted, said: “Mass deportation now, set fire to all the f****** hotels full of the b******* for all I care… if that makes me racist so be it.”
The post came after three girls were stabbed and killed at a holiday club in Southport on the same date, sparking nationwide unrest.
