Fact checked
Manchester Mayor

Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham is calling for a new law to make it possible to prosecute those who spread “offensive lies and conspiracies.”

The Mayor made his comments after a man was sued for claiming that the Manchester Arena attack in 2017 was a hoax.

He wrote: “The law needs to be changed to make it a serious criminal offence to peddle these offensive lies and conspiracies with custodial penalties”

Reclaim the net reports: A survivor of the 2017 Manchester Arena attack, Martin Hibbert, is suing a conspiracy theorist who claims the attack was a hoax.

A survey conducted by Kings College, involving 4,000 correspondents, found that 14% doubt whether the attack happened at all, and 10% of people think it was a hoax.

A conspiracy theorist who believes the attack was a hoax, Richard D Hall, has targeted Hibbert, who was paralyzed from the waist down, and his daughter Eve, who suffered a traumatic brain injury.

Hall insists the attack was a hoax, and has even tracked down survivors, to investigate if the attack was real.

He claims that those that died in the terror attack are living abroad.

In an interview with BBC’s Radio 4, Hibbert said that while he respects the freedom of speech, Hall had crossed the line because he was profiting from the misery of others.

  1. So, does he mean hos OWN “theories” and “Offensive Lies”..???

    Gov’t is the biggest spreader of fake news and propaganda lies, they should prosecute themselves, LMAO

  2. Well the media would be incarcerated then. Major corporations like postal services, telecommunications, police Justice, education would all be in jail.
    Churches /religions would be getting life sentences. But he will never address the truth. He will scapegoat and bully for the cover stories protections mostly.
    We don’t know what that hall characters saying or trying to say even He won’t get to explain or elaborate We don’t know what happened at the reported event. We can’t trust the news.
    In all of the years, of 60 minutes spin I’ve seen 1 episode that told the truth and that was then removed from their Web site totally.

  3. Great the emperor’s new clothes. So if we can’t see cloathing we are stupid and should pay or go to jail, stating the obvious but as its labelled wrong we get punished. As soon there lies get caught they tell us, we are sorry we didn’t knew. Well how about consequences for politicians or heads of pharmaceutical companies to get jail time, if we catch them. But it seems its, the law only works for them.
    Reminds me on Hunter Bidens laptop from hell, well there is all the evidence you need and nothing happens to him, seems all media is owned by black rock vanguard. They protect their intrests not ours, as it should be.
