The appeal court upheld the decision of the original court - https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Connollysentence.pdf https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Lucy-Connolly-v-The-King.pdf https://www.sentencingcouncil.org.uk/offences/magistrates-court/item/racial-hatred-offences-hatred-against-persons-on-religious-grounds-or-grounds-of-sexual-orientation/
