Internet trolls to face up to two years in jail
Internet trolls will face up to two years in jail under tough new laws proposed by Justice Secretary Chris Grayling.

The previous maximum term of six months will be quadrupled under the plan to tackle the "cowards" who post abusive comments online.

Mr Grayling said the plan was a signal of his determination to "take a stand against a baying cyber-mob".
The move comes just days after the threats directed at Chloe Madeley after she stepped in to defend her mother Judy Finnigan's controversial comments about footballer and convicted rapist Ched Evans.

The Justice Secretary told the Mail on Sunday: "These internet trolls are cowards who are poisoning our national life."

Did they think they would be allowed to do this for as long as they wished without punishment of any kind?

**bb1** Sat Oct 18, 2014 9:48 pm

And for how long have we been warning the haters, that their disgusting activities were going to give the government an excuse to clamp down on the internet?

Not one of them listened, they just got worse and worse.

**lily** Sat Oct 18, 2014 10:00 pm

For them to think that it didn't mean them goes to show how much in denial they are. It has been so interesting watching them that we said ages ago that this would happen. It could not be any other way, sadly for normal people, but when it happens they will be the ones screaming the loudest.

**bb1** Sat Oct 18, 2014 10:48 pm

Oh, the haters will tell themselves it doesn't apply to them, because they're entitled to act like a lynch mob, sorry, I mean Truthseekers.

They simply do not give a flying one about the law of the land, or the human and civil rights of other people.

**lily** Sat Oct 18, 2014 10:52 pm

Do they think they are above it all?

**bb1** Sat Oct 18, 2014 11:02 pm

I've given up trying to understand what any of them think, Lily. But they really do need a reality check, and to see themselves as the rest of the world does.

they represent the worst of the human psyche electronically unleashed.

I don't want them to misread what they are.

Crackdown on the cyber-mobs poisoning Britain: Sentence for web trolls to be quadrupled to two years after shocking high-profile online abuse cases
Maximum six month sentence for internet trolls to be quadrupled
Comes after model Chloe Madeley received rape threats on Twitter
Model's mother Judy Finnigan had shared view on release of Ched Evans
Justice Secretary Chris Grayling said trolls 'poisoned our national life'

nternet trolls who subject victims to vile abuse are to be jailed for up to two years under a tough Government crackdown.
Harsher sentences are to be introduced following a series of shocking, high-profile cases, including rape threats made against model Chloe Madeley last week.
Justice Secretary Chris Grayling revealed to The Mail on Sunday that the maximum six month sentence for internet abuse will be quadrupled.
Miss Madeley, who was targeted after her mother Judy Finnigan made controversial remarks about the footballer and convicted rapist Ched Evans, last night welcomed the move, saying that the most sickening comments amounted to ‘online terrorism’.
The tougher new legislation is already being dubbed ‘Chloe’s Law’ after her public stance against the disturbing messages.
Mr Grayling said: ‘These internet trolls are cowards who are poisoning our national life.
‘No one would permit such venom in person, so there should be no place for it on social media. That is why we are determined to quadruple the current six-month sentence.
‘As the terrible case of Chloe Madeley showed last week, people are being abused online in the most crude and degrading fashion.
‘This is a law to combat cruelty – and marks our determination to take a stand against a baying cyber-mob. We must send out a clear message: if you troll you risk being behind bars for two years.’

Currently, offenders who subject their victims to sexually offensive, verbally abusive or threatening material on the internet can only be prosecuted in magistrates courts under the Malicious Communications Act, which carries a maximum prison sentence of six months.
But the planned changes will allow magistrates to pass on serious cases to the crown courts, where offenders would face a maximum sentence of 24 months.
Miss Madeley, 27, was targeted with what she described as ‘extremely chilling and cowardly’ threats after she defended her mother for suggesting on a TV panel show that Mr Evans’s offence was less serious because he had not physically harmed the teenager he attacked.

Last night Miss Madeley said it was right for Mr Grayling to update the ten-year-old law, since it pre-dates Twitter.
She told The Mail on Sunday: ‘The current law obviously needs to be reviewed. It needs to be accepted that physical threats should not fall under the “freedom of speech” umbrella. It should be seen as online terrorism and it should be illegal.’

Her remarks come after her father, TV presenter Richard Madeley, warned the trolls: ‘Prosecution awaits you.’
The changes will be made as an amendment to the Criminal Justice and Courts Bill currently going through Parliament.
They would also give the police more time to collect enough evidence to enable successful prosecutions to be brought.
Earlier this month, 63-year-old Brenda Leyland, who subjected the family of missing Madeleine McCann to online abuse, was found dead in a hotel after being confronted outside her home by a Sky News reporter.
Mrs Leyland was one of a number of trolls who compounded Gerry and Kate McCann’s distress by abusing them on social media. One tweet read: ‘#mccann To Kate and Gerry, you will be hated by millions for the rest of your miserable, evil, conniving lives, have a nice day!’
Mr McCann commented at the time: ‘Clearly something needs to be done about the abuse on the internet. I think we probably need more people charged.’
Miss Madeley explained last week why she had gone public with the threats, saying: ‘I always ignore the disgusting troll tweets I get because I honestly do not want to give them any attention.
‘But the tweet in question took it to another level and I wanted to stand up against it.
‘There is a line where rationality ends and criminality begins. The person who threatened me crossed that line.’
The move by Mr Grayling follows the announcement he would include a measure in the Criminal Justice and Courts Bill to make it an offence to post so-called ‘revenge pornography’ online, which would also carry a maximum jail term of two years.

I don't honestly think they realise that they are breaking The Law. Someone screeched Free Speach at them and told them to put IMO after their Libellous Comments, and they thought they were home and dry.

I can remember posts of the past telling them to do this, hence the "Free Speach" joke, which has been around for a very long time.
People who don't make unfounded accusations don't need the protection of Free Speech. Sadly, it will take a few prosecutions in The McCann case before they cotton on, and so far there haven't been enough. Actually, have there been any? Even in the case of Mr. Bennett it wasn't about Free Speech, even though he tried to make it so. Pity he didn't succeed, if you ask me.

Actually, the more I look at it, the more I think that The Government won't need to curtail Internet use. There are Laws in use already. Just get in there and shame them under existing Laws. And they will all collapse in a puddle of slimy sorrow and apologies. It didn't take Brenda very long to say that she hoped she hadn't broken The Law.
But don't kid yourselves that any of them will actually feel sorry. Not that this is important. Just scare the bejesus out of them, and then leave them to fester in the sure and certain knowledge that they've been silenced.

It's the IMO that always amuses me, Sabot. Or, Just my opinion, is another one. I also like, I'm entitled to think what I like!

To which the answer is, Yes, so keep it to yourself, instead of spewing your sick, delusional fantasies all over the internet, and trampling on the civil and human rights of other people.

I wonder why the Sunday Times doesn't seem to be mentioning the vile posts, obscene photoshopping, etc., by the FB haters?

**bb1** Sun Oct 19, 2014 1:37 pm

Oh my very dear.

The hounders have decided that the best way to thumb their noses at any new law about internet abuse is to make up a new internet language in which to attack the McCanns and others.

There's a village somewhere missing an entire colony of idiots. Hahau

I have never seen these two before so have just watched it - I think Holmes was getting to Poulton. Worth a second's worth of giggle. LL

Ghastly pair; there is no 'cause' they won't latch onto and try to make about them. They're a bit like Mutton with dyed blonde hair.

One's a conspiraloon, and the other one would go to the opening of an envelope if it got her name in the papers. I haven't once seen the slightest glimmerings of talent for anything other than self-promotion from either of them.

**Sabot** Sun Oct 19, 2014 3:45 pm

That Poulton woman is a very bad amateur who needs a serious make over. All of her video appearances are cringe worthy.

I can never remember who the other one is, I have her mentally filed, as That ghastly show-off with the big nose... biggrin
