People promoting “hostility” towards a religion or the transgendered online could get much harsher sentences, of up to six years in jail, especial if they have a large online audience according to new proposals.
The Sentencing Council for England and Wales has drafted changes to public order offences, including anyone perceived as targeting online a “protected characteristics” including “race; sex; disability; age; sexual orientation; religion or belief; pregnancy and maternity; and gender reassignment.”
The most severe punishments will be handed to those “in a position of trust, authority or influence and abuses their position to stir up hatred,” such as political leaders or figureheads and anyone whose offences are “persistent.”
If an “offender was a member of, or was associated with, a group promoting hostility based on race or religion,” their sentence will also be harsher.
The Sentencing Council believes that the use of social media, YouTube, and other “websites” to stir hatred is a growing problem – despite the number of prosecutions remain relatively low.
“Volumes of these offences are extremely low and there have been no offenders sentenced for some offences,” the Sentencing Council said.

I suppose devout Christians (whose criticisms of deviant lifestyles are not hateful, of course) could start Christian ministries in prison after sentencing.
Future Moslem rule will be a cinch after what these people are doing.
I am sure the muzzies can say anything they want, and get away with it. 👎

Goodbye England Land of my ancestors
Mark Steyn says that the UK criminalizes everything except actual crimes.
It truly breaks my heart, that that nation has fallen so low and has done so with but a slight whimper.
Looks like the Nazis won WW2 after all. A bit delayed, but they finally won.
In the USSR Stalin handed out ten year sentences for saying the wrong thing.
These folks want to take the UK 60 percent of the way there.
Maybe its time to change the country’s name to the UKSSR.......
The United States should sever diplomatic relations with the UK and put them on the no-fly list. What a bunch of miserable pasty transluscent creeps.
And so fast. It’s the dip sh!t leaders, of course. Maybe the people are whimpering, but not very loud, so they go to the big house.
You May be right.
Once again libs using Orwell as instruction manuals instead of the warnings he intended.
Imagine there’s no country...imagine all the people living in peace.....y’now....thats about all it is...imagination...what do you do when someone elses imagination only sees you subservient or dead?
President Trump is set to visit the UK on July 13th.
Matters like this and the killing of the children by denial of medical treatment must be on the table.
Michael Savage was banned from entering the UK for what he has said as well as others.
Well its time to start banning judges and doctors and police involved in “hate crimes” matters and the denial of medical treatment to children from entering the USA.
I've been going to London since 1967, the change, even from the late 1980s, are shocking and horrifying !
Welcome to life without the First and Second Amendment.
Coming soon to an American city near all of you.
Americans need to withdraw security guarantees to UK.They’re not worth defending anymore. No liberties, no more special relationship. Sad!
Our enemies have nearly won because they have divided America, and our Allies.
Living on a Thin Line
The Kinks
All the stories have been told
Of kings and days of old,
But there’s no England now.
All the wars that were won and lost,
Somehow don’t seem to matter very much anymore.
All the lies we were told,
All the lies of the people running round,
They’re castles have burned.
I see change,
But inside we’re the same as we ever were.
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line,
Living this way, each day is a dream.
What am I, what are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Now another century nearly gone,
What are we gonna leave for the young?
What we couldn’t do, what we wouldn’t do,
It’s a crime, but does it matter?
Does it matter much, does it matter much to you?
Does it ever really matter?
Yes, it really, really matters.
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Now another leader says:
“Break their hearts and break some heads”.
Is there nothing we can say or do?
Blame the future on the past,
Always lost in bloody guts.
And when they’re gone, it’s me and you.
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line.
I was last there, in 1983. I was TDY to RAF Lakenheath and RAF Greenham Common, doing USAF business, so it was not a pleasure trip.
So glad right about now that great x3 grandpappy decided to board that ship and sail for the land of the free.
From what I have seen from the Brits commenting over at the DM they are by and large atheists over there. Not even just that, but many openly mock Christianity.
