It would be great to hear your thoughts on this episode but remember- please keep them kind .

Coming up on today's show

My guest was arrested, charged and found guilty for two counts of breaking the law here in the UK , the evidence for the convictions being from two Facebook posts that he put up -

I can tell you that my guest is in no shape or form a racist ,

And in his own words is against violent protest I. Any shape or form

We now live in a country where all people are aware of how easy it would be to spend time in prison for mearly venting our frustrations on social media .

This show thinks that in the times we now currently find ourselves living in that

There must be a opportunity for people to voice their regret and say what they actually meant ,

There must be leniency from the judiciary when people have been brought to account by the police too admitting their error.

The amount of people going to prison for voicing their angry concerns and complaints is increasing,

This is a symptom of the core problem. The people I speak to believe they have no voice, because if they speak out against injustice, they are labelled as a trouble maker or radical racist of the worst possible type .

I can tell you that ordinary people with everyday lives have very real concerns ,

Concerns that if left unchecked will potentially change their lives forever and not in a good way ,

My guest has agreed after much persuasion on my behalf to come on to the show and share his experience of being taken away from his normal life and then forced to becoming a prisoner at his majesties pleasure in consequence because of his previous two Facebook posts

This particular episode is not calling for seditious behaviour by anyone or for revolution on our fair isle,

This episode is about making you aware of how easy it is nowadays to end up in prison for expressing an opinion and also how much that could test the average person's sanity.

This episode is about drawing the line under the heading overkill .
