Yep, too lenient

Racist Eurocentrism Spawned by Heinous History &Nurtured by Abhorrent continuum in our 90%-European UK! Do BBC PAImages have policies that: A)Tackle infused racist Eurocentrism? B)Care for CHILDREN'S minds/self-esteem? Or, 'speeding' but nae racist Eurocentrism! .

Yet again the laws are questioned but mot inforced why do we have them good enough for every folk but not good for everyone !

a guy gets off with sexual abuse of a 6 year old because he is middle class and it would ruin his future while a black lawyer MP gets jail time for an attempt at avoiding a minor traffic violation. The justice of the UK class system (and racist establishment) for all to see.

Hung drawn and quartered

She should have got the fine and points. A jail term over the top and racist

You have to release me I'm black and sick. Hope they give her 12 months instead.

An appeal ... on what grounds?

VolvoMan17 Nigerian fraudster tell my something I don’t know

10 years no parole.

Hang her 🤣

How many more MPs should be in jail.for lying ?

Double it

Shameless. But what can you expect from the Momentum party?

FionaOnasanyaMP with a criminal record is that right? she wouldn’t have it if she had admitted the first offence

I really object to my income tax contributing to her £70K salary. Bad enough I have to pay for her board and lodging for the next three months 😬

Feck it should have checked the odds with Willy Hill 😕

If he got 10 months she should get LONGER

Good

We can but hope she receives a longer sentence, and if she does, it will be richly deserved.

18 months

This is what happens when you import black culture total disregard of the law

Don’t you dare let her off with it

Very lenient sentence for person in her position.

So brother pleaded guilty to the same offence and receives 10 months she carries on lying and only gets 3 months!!! Disgraceful.

There has to be a high standard when anyone is in the public eye!! This lady has no moral standards recognisable to the average member of public!! She should not be allowed to be a member of Parliament!!!

Custodial sentence a bit extreme for this.

So how did her brother get 10 months and she only got 3 months. Disgraceful she should have at least 12 months and licence taken away.

Should be challenged. 3 months! Her accomplice got 10 months, yet it was all her idea

Lock her up and throw away the key . And while your there take the rest of labour as well

Life.

Of course she'll be freed now Corbyn had a word I expect.

Longer sentence then.

Should be longer

I'm surprised she's not playing the race card like her old boss Diane Abbott does frequently

3 years please.

The brother got 10 month she got 3. Why did he get longer for same crime?

At least 12 months!!

How do these people get voted in to office

Whats the betting that MP gets lighter sentence than member of public would.

To be increased? Surely not decreased?!😳

I've a feeling that it's being reviewed due to her not resigning her position as an MP. If she gets a longer sentence (12 months) it'll only be due to her arrogance.

Increasing it to a year with any luck.

Let me guess 3 months is too long 🤔

Should think so too. Chris Huhne got 8 months.

Hope it's at least doubled. A sitting MP committing perjury is a disgrace.

“Life” would be too short.

Yes, she will get off....

Why

And so it should two years would have been more appropriate and this lenient sentence will only fuel the racists and misogynists

why is that a tory due to appear in court

Tories get off with all kinds of shenanigans. She's guilty but does not deserve this sentence

A lawmaker who has been convicted of perverting the course of justice cannot be a lawmaker. Period.

And she has the cheek to say she will appeal!! These MPs have lost their grip of reality.

washlandsPosh Should be 12 months Min

Tell this woman there’s a difference between fiddling tax, and perverting the course of justice.parliament is a place where criminals can flourish if this MP is not thrown OUT!!!

What!

Should be sacked and barred from standing again.

FionaOnasanya deserves a significantly longer sentence as Chris Huhne pleaded guilty and was sentenced to eight months, whereas Fiona Onasanya pleaded innocent in both cases and was found guilty.

Hopefully gets a year at least

Bravo! Second time in as many days after Joshua Gardner got an upgrade of three and a half years for terrorising Croydon with a Rambo style knife. The justice system is too soft!! Alongside police cuts this is probably contributing to rising crime rates! weakcourts zerojustice

This woman has no scruples. At least Huhne had the decency to resign.

She should be locked up for 5 years and be forced to resign , distrusting , disgusting woman .

Anyone changed her residence on Wiki yet?

Friends in low places...took around 3mths for Zombie knife Man's sentence to be reviewed

Made longer I hope

Hope it’s being reviewed to increase it!

Told lies under oath,perjury needs longer sentence

Hopefully she will get a longer term for lying and abusing her position

Genuine shock. Not.

She should get life and be made an example of

Can’t blame her for lying after all she’s an MP

You’re joking!!

Never mind about her jail time, what about the money she'll still be paid while she's serving it?

Irrespective of the rights or wrongs with the sentence - she should resign and try to rebuild. She clearly has no integrity or sense of moral responsibility by keeping her MP role for the money. It’s just plain wrong.

The two-tier legal system needs to stop.

Should be challenged. 3 months! Her brother got 10 months, yet it was all her idea

Donmarsden2 If you can't du the time. Don't du the crime! happyshegotputdownlol

It's one law for one and one law for MPs if that had been a member of the public

Any jail term is ridiculous for her offence, MP or not. You get less for burglary.

Longer serial liar this woman

I’ve made a petition – pls sign it? Click this link to sign the petition: Ensure any MP sentenced to a prison term immediately loses their seat. The government should ensure that ANY MP sentenced to serve time in prison should immediately lose their seat.

She looks awfully happy about it...

To be increased significantly you would hope

Should be reviewed sending entirely the wrong message with a short sentence

eljmayes Considering another MP got a much stiffer sentence hopefully she will get even longer .

Increase to 12 months so she cannot continue to claim her 77k per year. Disgraceful woman who is morally corrupt.

PARROTVOTTI Triple the sentence, and sack her.

MexicoRS78 She was a layer so knows exactly what she was doing

How can she continue to do her job is she's behind bars? She should be sacked at the bare minimum. How is it that her brother got 3 times longer for the same offence? It stinks.

Many MPs have been caught & let off for speeding cause of their position so this is much welcomed change. Cant help but think thr outcome would have been different if she was white tho🤔 Anyway now prosecute those MPs abusing their expenses claims at cost to the British Taxpayers

Bring back hanging! 🙊

Unbelievable that she isn’t automatically sacked frombeing an MP and is drawing a salary

Should be 8 months, the same as Chris Huhne got for the same crime!

1) MP gets jail-time and thus cannot represent Peterborough. 2) Still remains as an MP despite being in jail. Is this truly *representative* democracy if you’re not *represented*? The people of Peterborough deserve a new vote on who to represent them..

Should have been longer and she has nothing to appeal against. Guilty!

Make it longer.

MexicoRS78 Something stinks with this sentence very dodgy

MexicoRS78 There's this as well

MexicoRS78 Her sentence was based on PC diversity. Common sense and a duty to the public was never a factor!

Oh there's a surprise 😄

Should go up! Deliberately lying.

Wonder is she tries to claim expenses as Jail is her second home?

Emmabarnett 👊👊

Make it 12 months and she will have to resign as a MP!

Claiming to be an Independent so she can keep taking from the public purse should get 12 months.

Reviewed as in 'lets double it' - I hope?

Black lives matter most.

Extended hopefully

Great give her more!

Chris Huhne got 3x as long for exactly the same offence. Clear case for a sentence increase here. And richly deserved.

Good now stop her being paid our money while she’s in prison.

She should rightly serve time. Is it conspiratorial to suggest the extension is being sought to take her beyond the 12 month period where she will lose her seat...in a marginal seat?

A tragic case. She worked so hard to get where she was and it's all destroyed by lying about a minor speeding offence

needs to do the decent thing and resign

'I make plain I will not treat you more severely because of your position as an MP and former solicitor.' Why not? The abuse of power and trust vested in her as a parliamentarian and officer of the court means she bloody well should be treated more severely. As Chris Hune was.

Give her 20 years

Making it longer ?

I suspect the complaints are politically motivated. A sentence of 12+ months would force her to stand down. If she only had the decency to do so voluntarily she might have got away with three months.

Let’s hope she receives a longer sentence.

Increase it I say

Good

Should get exactly the same as everyone else does, regardless of party or social status if you break the law you get punished.

Does anyone know who made the request?

Huhne got 10 months and didn’t frame an innocent man like she did.

What sentence did Chris Huhne and Vicki Pyrce get? Slightly more than 3 months I recall 🤔

Hope Lady Muck gets a few years.

If it’s not in line with similar cases with less well known people, it should be. If it’s about the same, it shouldn’t be increased simply because she’s an MP.

Well if everyone was jailed for lying it would be filled up with this government and Teresa may 😂😂

so it should minimum own govt guideline state should have been 4 months what alone of her own profession & public role so should have been at least half of the max 36 months ?

If the AG does refer it as she is appealing the conviction you will have the rare situation of both prosecution and the defence appealing in the same case. I am not sure this has happened before.

Good. She should get at least 5 years.

Great news 15 months 👏🏻👏🏻

She should know better given her position in society. If she can’t abide by the judicial system then why should anyone else? I have no sympathy whatsoever

Is this one of those 'pay the fine or do the time' sentences where the convicted has the option? £20k fine or 3 months in the bin, id probably do the time.

プレデターかと

Good she thought she was something special anyway now throw the book at her
