This is a lie.
There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.
But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Farage lies. He lies to fool people into believing his anti-migrant agenda.
His lies should be publicly called out. He should be held accountable in parliament as an MP his spreading of misinformation has consequences.
He is dangerous. His lies must be fact checked and called out publicly.
