I see palestinian protestors have been handed jail sentences and branded terrorists. Really?? A bunch of well meaning middle class people now banged up with hardened criminals, rapists and murderers. Was it really needed to jail them???

The fiend that fractured the police officer's back with a sledge-hammer ought to have been given 10 years minimum.

Their problem was they didn't smash a female police constable in the back with a sledgehammer. Rookie error.

What ought to worry forumites is they were sentenced to prison for terrorist offences despite NOT having been convicted or even tried for terrorist offences.

The judge used a legal workaround to avoid letting the jury decide on that point.

Should wip the smile off their smug middle class faces, should have got a lot longer esp the sledgehammer wielding thug. Hopefully they'll get taught a thing or two in prison that their parents clearly didn't.

Justice Johnson said he took into account that Rajwani was only 20 at the time of the attack. Confused

He also considered the impact of several mental health issues and disorder diagnoses for Head, Kamio and Rajwani as making custody more difficult for them. Confused

They were not ordered to pay compensation Confused , but Justice Johnson said the damaged company and the injured police officer could bring legal proceedings to seek compensation.

Head and Rajwani were seen wiping away tears after the ruling was delivered Happy

Around 500 protesters gathered outside Woolwich Crown Court - with more than 100 arrested, police say.

'Completely unjust': John McDonnell joins protesters outside court

Former Labour shadow chancellor John McDonnell has appeared outside Woolwich Crown Court to support protesters.

McDonnell thinks the link is unjust.

"By introducing this terrorist element retrospectively, it's completely unjust," he said.

"And I think, actually, if a jury had heard that, I think they'd be free now. So I'm actually astounded that this has happened. I'm very angry about it as well.

"That's why they should be released today. There's a debate to be had about whether it was a crime as well, because they believed that they were trying to prevent the further killing of Palestinian children."

Of the 24 people charged over the August 2024 incident, six were initially tried and acquitted of aggravated burglary in February this year. The jury failed to reach a verdict on the criminal damage charges – leading to the current retrial, in which two of the six activists were found not guilty.

This isn't true. They were sentenced for the crimes they committed. That it was an act of terrorism was an aggravating factor used in sentencing by the judge.

The facts of aggravating or mitigating factors has always solely been for the judge to decide on and then subsequent appeal courts if neccesary and never anything to do with a jury.

I hope the court will throw the book at the mother of that scum who knifed Mr Nowak to death in Southampton merely out of his sick mentality against white people. The scum could not have behaved in that despicable and horrific manner but for the environment and upbringing by his parents. A kid does not become a murderer and a racist on their own.

Corner is a separate issue because he was convicted of GBH as well as criminal damage. Serious violence against a police officer obviously deserves serious punishment.

But that does not answer the wider point.

A terrorism connection at sentencing for people convicted only of criminal damage is a dangerous precedent. Maybe the judge was legally entitled to do it, but that does not make it unimportant or beyond criticism.

Not if it clearly is terrorism it isn't.

Terrorism is the calculated use of violence to create fear in a population and achieve a political objective
