‘Political Prisoner’ Lucy Connolly to Meet With Trump Administration, Says She Will Sue UK Police

"Lucy Connolly, a British housewife who was handed a hefty prison sentence for sending a Tweet, is in talks with the Trump administration and is taking legal advice to sue over the circumstances of her incarceration, she said after being released from prison.
A British woman who was handed a 31-month prison sentence for publishing a message on the X/Twitter platform in the wake of the Southport child slayings has been released from jail and has described what she calls deliberate mistreatment characterized by prison governors being “leaned on” in accordance with her de facto status as a political prisoner.
Stating she believes the government selected her to set an example to discourage further discontent, Connolly decried “two-tier justice”, telling Pearson she “absolutely” thinks she was “Keir Starmer’s political prisoner” and that she was coerced out of getting a fair trial.
While it has already been reported that the government of U.S. President Donald Trump, which has repeatedly expressed grave concern over the state of freedom of speech in European nations, including the UK, has shown interest in her case, Connolly said she will be meeting with “a senior representative” of the Trump team this week for talks."
