Big Blockade Fines Lottery
|
Five Big Blockaders were sentenced this week in the local courts after
guilty pleas.
On Friday at Helensburgh Ruth Moodie, Nicky Hill, Patricia
Reilly and James Francis were each given fines of £250 by JP Gillies. He is
the high tariff magistrate from Rothesay who disapproves of peace
protesters (he fined Jane Tallents £300 for a blockade). Much luckier was
John Kennedy who was up before Sheriff Fraser at Dumbarton. The Sheriff
said that he had dealt with many such cases over the years and could
understand the reasons for John’s actions. He fined him £50.
