It will have cost the public purse a huge sum to have put this GP in prison. Four years on from lockdown, she has gone to prison for non payment of a fine. The whole thing seems ludicrous.

No - it sounds as if the Judge is off his mind for not dealing with the actual guilty party and refusing to listen to a very dedicated and sane GP. Oh, and yes, I know the lady in person and she is a very dedicated and sane person and a honerable GP, so I speak from 1st hand knowledge.

Do you really think it is sane not to believe that the Director of Public Prosecutions exists?

She sounds very troubled however I have never believed the COVID fines were fair; I would give everyone who had to pay their money back.

She brought it on herself from what I can see. I am certainly not "outraged" in the slightest.
