Legal Controversy
Luke Yarwood who posted two anti-immigration tweets on X was handed a 18-month jail sentence by Judge Fuller at Bournemouth Crown Court on the 17th December 2025.
Head for the hotels housing them and burn them to the ground
I think it’s time for the British to gang together, hit the streets and start the slaughter.
Violence and murder is the only way now. Start off burning every migrant hotel then head off to MPs’ houses and Parliament, we need to take over by FORCE.
Luke Yarwood
The posts were only viewed 33 times.
His barrister argued the posts had 33 views between them and were the ‘impotent rantings of a socially isolated man’ that had no ‘real-world’ consequences.
But Judge Jonathan Fuller said Yarwood’s ‘odious’ tweets were designed to stir up racial hatred and incite violence, and jailed him.

His case has been compared with Lucy Connolly, who pleaded guilty inciting racial hatred after sending the X post on the day of the Southport attacks. She was sentenced by Judge Melbourne Inman.
This is not a court of politics but law. You are entitled to express your views, but freedom of speech is not an absolute right, it’s a qualified one.
What the law prohibits is the stirring up of racial hatred.
The continuing safety and stability of our communities are undermined by actions such as yours.
The tweets speak for themselves, they are odious in the extreme. There could be few clearer examples of words specifically designed to stir up racial hatred and incite violence.
They are serious offences that could have had serious consequences and can only be marked by a sentence of immediate imprisonment.
