In a fiery interview with GB News, Lucy Connolly has accused Lord Hermer of 'fast-tracking' her charges for a deleted tweet, claiming it was done to prevent her from securing a fair trial. Connolly, a mother turned 'free speech' symbol, revealed shocking new evidence from Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) files, which she says shows her case was treated with the same urgency as a high-level terror investigation. She described how she spent months being told her files were 'lost or destroyed' before finally obtaining them via a Subject Access Request. The documents, she claims, confirm a coordinated effort between the police, the CPS, and the Attorney General to rush her into a jail cell within 24 hours. Connolly, who served time for a social media post following the Southport tragedy, told GB News that the trail of emails shows her prosecution was signed off by the CPS Counter-Terrorism division and the Attorney General at breakneck speed. She argued that this 'emergency' status was a calculated move to deny her the right to think rationally or find adequate representation. Connolly shared that her case had been 'fast-tracked', completely preventing her from seeking proper legal advice and undermining her right to a fair trial. She compared her situation to Labour councillor Ricky Jones, who was later found not guilty by a jury, having had months between the incident and going to court to secure strong legal representation. Connolly believes the difference in treatment was political, and that the intention was to stop her from seeking good legal advice, put her on the back foot, and panic her. She never had the chance to sit down with a proper legal team and discuss her options. Connolly's case has sparked controversy, and she invites readers to share their thoughts in the comments. Do you think the fast-tracking of her charges was a calculated move to deny her a fair trial? Or is there another interpretation of the events that we should consider?
