Diddums

Can see now how she turned out to be such a selfish spoiled brat. She was never taught that actions have consequences. Cry me a river.

But it's her mum? Of course prisoners families are upset about them missing family events- I'm sure that applies to all prisoners? She's not responsible for her adult daughters actions

No she’s not responsible for her daughter’s actions but she appears to be fully supportive of them and states how very proud her and Daddy are of her. There is no acknowledgement of the chaos and upset caused to 1000’s of people it’s just all about poor darling Cressie who they apparently brought up to know right from wrong 🙄

Zone2NorthLondon · 26/07/2024 13:41

She wilfully impeded people with travel commitments, hospital appts,jobs,interviews,weddings to attend and now there is whining oh no! She’ll miss her brother wedding

the words tough and titty come to mind.

entitled horah

Toottooot · 26/07/2024 13:39

Wooptie fucking ping. Didnae care aboot fit other folk were missing during her protest did she?

MenopauseSucks · 26/07/2024 13:37

Being silly here so don't flame me...

How about we blockade the church or venue where the wedding is being held?

I'm sure both families & their guests will understand that they are unable to reach the ceremony due to our peaceful protest.

Oh the irony

Cressida dearest, arrange the words 'shit' and 'tough' into a well known phrase or saying.

ComealongMartha · 26/07/2024 13:36

Excellent!

Remember that woman who avoided going to jail for stabbing her boyfriend because she was 'too bright for prison' as she was at Oxford?

There's certainly a precedent for letting bright white girls get away with crime so I can see why the mother might be confused as to why it doesn't apply here.

Now I would normally overlook the usual lazy racialising of crime issues but today in the name of poor Falaq Barbar I say to you: SUHAIL MOHAMMED

Brother, 23, texted girlfriend he 'killed' his 11-year-old sister

Suhail Mohammed, 23, refused to be quizzed on the apparent admissions, as it emerged he will not face prosecution over the death of Falaq Babar from a bleed on the brain.

A bit of disruption on the M25 will pale in comparison to the disruption climate change will cause in the coming years.

Not that I think JSO is going to make any difference, but they're doing what they think to be necessary to try and draw attention to the issue. I'm not saying they shouldn't face the consequences of breaking the law though.

On a side not, does anyone else think that vegans are onto a loser trying to convince us it's a healthy diet when they all look as though they've been re-animated from a mortuary slab?

DoIWantTo · 26/07/2024 13:33

I think the people that have been held up from getting to school, work, the hospital, their family members almost dying in the back of ambulances being prevented from moving will be exceptionally happy they’re getting a taste of their own medicine. I’ll certainly not shed a tear, self important gits the lot of them.

It’s her brother’s wedding though, not hers.

So? If she is neither the bride nor groom, it’s hard lines. Am sure they all appreciate her sacrifice in the name of the cause…

Convicted criminals miss weddings, graduations, births/death and christenings all the time. It’s kind of the point of imprisonment - withholding of the normal every days rights and privileges conferred within a democratic society in exchange for observing its laws and protections.

whynotwhatknot · 26/07/2024 13:32

tone deaf and shwas flying to the wedding so also a hyporite

Inastatus · 26/07/2024 13:30

Anewuser · 26/07/2024 11:21

It was her brother’s speech that was even worse.

The hypocrisy that she would have flown to be at his wedding.

Please could someone of the 15% give their opinion because I was sure this would be 100% agreeing with OP.

@Anewuser - OMG, she was going to fly to the wedding!!

The entitlement in that family is unreal!

Thank you. I read the judge said ‘if this had went ahead I’d have imposed the maximum sentence’ so I’m a bit confused.

I'm sure a judge would use English as we know it! 😆

Maddy70 · 26/07/2024 13:23

Peaceful protecting should not be illegal

The French wouldnt stand for .it Neither would the Spanish

Outrageous that the uk who prides itself (or did!) On free speach and democracy has made protesting illegal

TemuSpecialBuy · 26/07/2024 13:21

She’s at Cambridge l???

how is she this think??
like what was going to happen???

the mother is a bit silly too… the doubling down is hardly going to help…

I can't understand why her mum is complaining about her missing a wedding. People stuck in her chaos missed funerals and oncology appointments. Her brother's wedding is irrelevant compared to the suffering she put others through.

Yeah, the mother seems to be tone-deaf too doesn't she. Read the room.

User8646382 · 26/07/2024 13:17

See, this is what happens when people don’t have any real worries in life. They get bored and have to invent them.

This is going to be a big life lesson for Cressida. It’s all very well showing off to her posh mates, but wait till she’s faced with the reality of sharing a prison cell for the next five years with someone decidedly un-posh. One thing is for sure - her expensive education won’t help her survive this. She would have been better off at the local sink estate comp.

I’m just interested to know if the wedding is carbon neutral? All fabrics sourced and woven in the UK, the wedding party and guests arriving on foot and via bicycle; catering produce and flowers all sourced from local farmers and delivered to the venue via horse and cart? The venue powered and heated by heat pumps and green energy?

Maybe I am jaded, but I am guessing not.

So no, I couldn’t give a flying f**k that she’ll miss a wedding.

It’s her brother’s wedding though, not hers.

viques · 26/07/2024 13:07

Projectme · 26/07/2024 12:52

I'm also interested in how 'green' the wedding is. It's a destination wedding isn't it? So all those people, on all those flights...

All those people…………Minus 1.🙂

If Cressida really cared about her carbon footprint she would be thanking the judge for helping her to reduce it by making her sentence both custodial and long enough.

Though come to think of it she is probably furious that she can’t now make a huge performance of not going to a destination wedding.

Comefromaway · 26/07/2024 12:31

It went ahead. It caused chaos. The court heard victim statements from someone who missed a cancer appointment so their treatment was delayed. Someone who missed a funeral, someone who missed an exam. A child with SEN who was being taken to school in a taxi missed taking their medication at school which made them volatile and putting the driver/escort at risk.

Edited

Thank you. I read the judge said ‘if this had went ahead I’d have imposed the maximum sentence’ so I’m a bit confused.
