The mother jailed for a racist tweet after the Southport massacre has been praised as ‘the kindest British person I know’ by a Nigerian GP.
Childminder Lucy Connolly lost her appeal this week to be freed from a 31-month sentence for her online rant about migrants.
Her Conservative councillor husband Ray Connolly said that his wife was ‘a good person…not a far-right thug’ but judges ruled the young mother must remain behind bars.
And now Nigerian GP Dr Hene Enyi has added her voice of support for the childminder, who looked after her young daughter.
Dr Enyi revealed Mrs Connolly had gone out of her way to help with her family’s application for British citizenship, even providing character references.
