Lucy Connolly’s case hasn’t gone away—and neither has the injustice. Days ago, journalist Allison Pearson interviewed her husband, Ray, who shared previously undisclosed details about Lucy’s ordeal. Here are some of the most harrowing—with added context. via https://news.starknakedbrief.co.uk/p/lawyers-sickened-by-judiciarys-treatment @TheStarkNakedBrief

Engagement
17 posts held, back to 26 March 2025 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 pageof Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 17 posts for this entry, the most recent from 9 April 2025. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
Reaction mix
1 reaction across 1 post, in 1 kind.
| Reaction | Count | Share | Share, drawn |

No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 1 of the 17 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 1reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 17 most recent posts we hold, published 26 March 2025 to 9 April 2025, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

UK Police make 30 arrests a day for offensive online messages Custody data obtained by The Times shows that officers are making about 12,000 arrests a year under section 127 of the Communications Act 2003 and section 1 of the Malicious Communications Act 1988. According to the data obtained by The Times, the force with the highest number of arrests in 2023 was the Metropolitan Police (1,709), the largest force in t…
Back in January, Labour’s Yvette Cooper promised action on the grooming gang scandal. Five independent local inquiries were pledged. Certain survivors weren’t fully satisfied—but it was something. Now, they've quietly "killed" those promises. via https://news.starknakedbrief.co.uk/p/labour-kills-local-grooming-gang @TheStarkNakedBrief
Just a reminder... The BBC tried to spin the Adolescence saga so hard that they linked Andrew Tate to the Southport child-murders. Their headline: "Southport attack parents share Andrew Tate fears" But 6 lines down from the headline, the author confesses: "it is not know whether he (Rudakubana) ever viewed material linked to Mr Tate" Why write an article on it then? Still no word from them on the reported anti…
While everyone was distracted by the Sentencing Council scandal, another power move had already been made. Labour Justice Sec Mahmood and her dept quietly implemented a two-tier bail system in January. And it's been in effect for months now.

Recent European flooding is "unexceptional" from a historical point of view, a new scientific paper has found.

The Sentencing Council's recent actions caused a storm online and in the press. Last night, they backtracked. But it wasn't necessarily the rules that were the most worrying part of the whole saga. Here's an honest attempt to breakdown the situation. https://news.starknakedbrief.co.uk/p/the-most-interesting-event-in-the-15b @TheStarkNakedBrief

These are getting painful to read... "A convicted Iranian sex offender has avoided deportation because drink and drug use have made him distrust authority.

Now the Sentencing Council plans to slash the penalties for illegally entering the UK, making deportations far harder.

Showing the 12 most recent of 17 posts we hold for @TheStarkNakedBrief. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.

@TheStarkNakedBrief named 1 handle that resolve to nothing today. That is a fact about the reference, not necessarily a fact about the handle’s history — see the two groups below.
Most of these may never have existed as a live channel at all.A handle a channel names can be a typo, an aspirational name nobody registered, or a channel that was already gone before this one ever mentioned it. Unless a row below is marked evidenced, all we know is that it references a handle that is not a live channel today — not that anything “died”. How this is measured.
Never seen alive
References a handle that is not a live channel — we have no record it ever was one.
