1. It’s actually like the criminal justice system want Farage to be PM. 

2. Absolutely ridiculous that this mistake has happened, especially given the sensitivity of the topic.

   There’s already talk of a flair up of anger by certain groups of people in Epping, and they don’t need much excuse to protest/riot so I imagine the town is going to not be a pleasant place yet again, because apparently to be patriotic and to think of the children is to smash stuff up.

   Edit: The conspiracy theories have already begun. Apparently it was an inside job, Stand Up To Racism, or a “foreign” security guard taking sympathy, according to the Enlightened of Epping. Cannot make it up, but apparently people have tried. A* for effort.

3. I remember the words of Dave Lister. We’re a real Mickey Mouse operation, aren’t we?

4. Unbelieveable, the incompetence is shocking!

   If he is not found asap, this is going to turn ugly, fast for our justice system and David Lammy…

5. I can just imagine the Malcolm Tucker-esque rant someone has gone on in the Home Office today.

6. I think Nigel might have just exploded with excitement over this Olympic class, ocean going omnishambles

7. Every day I become more convinced we are living in an experimental reality, as some kind of cosmic joke.

8. It’s getting harder and harder to believe they aren’t engineering Farage’s win at this point.

9. If only we gave the justice system another £100 gorillion a year this wouldn’t have happened smh.

10. I’m just thinking of the Brass Eye “This is the one thing we didn’t want to happen” scene at the moment.

11. We seriously need checks and balances around entry into this country. 

12. A spokesman said “This is the one thing we didn’t want to happen”

13. The country is really an absolute joke. It’s like everything that can be done to give us a reform government is being done. 

14. Ok this is a wild indictment on the prison service but what is this

    >In September, he was sentenced to 12 months and given a five-year sexual harm prevention order, which banned him from **approaching or contacting any female**

    How can that ever be policed

15. Apparently someone filmed him in Chelmsford city centre earlier. The guy on twitter reposting it claims he was in court and is sure its the same person, although I don’t know how much I’d trust him. The alleged guy in the video does look like him and is still in prison greys and also has the see-through belongings bag they give you when you’re released so that does add some weight to the claim.

16. >”Sentenced to 12 months in September”

    >”Released as he was due to be deported”

    Now, I’m no mathematician, but the math doesn’t work here.

    Sentenced to 12 months, didn’t even serve 12 weeks.

17. People need to be sacked for this. If any further crimes happen as a result, those responsible for releasing him should see prison time as well.

    Pure negligence.

18. I swear living in the UK is like living in a simulation at this point.

19. Is there a more incompetent crime and justice system in the world than the UK?

20. Genuinely if he does something on the outside – there’s no world this government can survive. Early elections it is.
