In case you were wondering if the UK was living under a free regime, it is, in fact, not.
Former footballer Joey Barton has been sentenced to six months in custody for “grossly offensive electronic communication.”
According to the BBC:
Barton, 43, was found guilty by a jury at Liverpool Crown Court of sending grossly offensive electronic communications with intent to cause distress or anxiety.
While it's not polite to intentionally cause someone distress or anxiety, this sets a troubling precedent. Authorities cannot reliably prove such impact — if there is even anything to prove. With far more serious issues facing the country, it's not clear why this is a matter for the courts at all.
Barton, who has 2.7m followers on X, repeatedly referred to Vine as "bike nonce" and said in one post: "If you see this fella by a primary school call 999," and "Beware Man with Camera on his helmet cruising past primary schools. Call the Cops if spotted."
That is it. That was the post.
It is now illegal in the UK to refer to Jeremy Vine as a Bike Nonce

He was found not guilty of six other allegations that he sent a grossly offensive electronic communication with intent to cause distress or anxiety between January and March 2024.
Jurors cleared Barton, now of Widnes, Cheshire, over the commentary analogy with the Wests but ruled the superimposed image was grossly offensive.
Giving evidence, Barton, who managed Fleetwood Town and Bristol Rovers, said he believed he was the victim of a "political prosecution" and denied his aim was "to get clicks and promote himself".
According to the BBC, bike nonce “means someone who likes the bike, the lycra, and buys all the gear.” How is this worthy of anything? Who cares? This is not a serious country, and Westerners should be extremely concerned about the precedents the UK government continues to set.
If you are not free to make fun of people, and the government creates fear that you will be held accountable for saying things they don't like, you are not free. Sadly, the UK has fallen.
