Should London Bridge Hero Receive Compensation Despite Previous Convictions? | Good Morning Britain

A lot of people will think that yes, he has done something bad in his life mm-hmm, but look at what he suffered, look at those stitches, look at what he suffered that night and what he could have done to save lives that night, right? an opportunity to say that we will leave some things aside because you deserve to be compensated for what happened. Well, he may have several prior

convictions

. I think the point is to say that since this happened, he has moved on and been compensated. By not going to prison for racially aggravated assault on two occasions and violating the restraining order against his mother, there are guidelines to follow.

One Stover here, two different issues, he is an absolute

hero

that night, what he did was incredible, that's all we do. I don't distinguish

compensation

for waiting, amazing, that's what he did, he was a

hero

, but there are guidelines and once you know that, we can sit here and debate whether he continues to commit criminal offenses when I'm dealing and when I have to do with people who took murdered children or pedophiles there were guidelines I have to follow, that doesn't mean it sounds like a worthwhile job no, I'm not alone with people no, well you say you have control, I said it sounds like I knew I dream.

Like we have rules, you know it well, so why do you allow yourself to come like a job with business? Here's my take on this, this guy is no angel, right, no, he too I suspect he's had a lot of trauma since this. incident that may or may not have affected his pattern of behavior, that may have been taken into account by the

convictions

he had and not going to prison, etc., but we are not judging his character or his angelic nature or anything that we accept, it is probably a bit of a tough guy, true, but when it mattered that night when people were being stabbed to death like it was a free murderous jihad, this guy stands unarmed and confronts these three guys, let me bring some perspective to this, first of all, let's start by recognizing the humanity in this let's recognize that heroes can be criminals and criminals can be heroes yes,

good

people can do bad things and bad people can do

good

things right now I am an activist against racism we are dealing with a man who is racist and is violent I do not approve of his abominable behavior, in fact I hope that the law is fully applied in these convictions, but what has happened in this case is that even though the law took into account his heroism in giving him a suspended sentence, the lordís or whoever decides.

This decision decides to punish him retrospectively under a totally separate cause of action where he

should

receive

compensation

, it makes no sense and I'm a lawyer. I know more than that, sir, you are a black woman telling a white woman that the racial part of her background

should

actually be taken into account. I agree with you, it should be irrelevant to the heroism of that night, but that has to do with me being black. It's interesting to me that a black woman is defending you from a white lady right at the moment. So you, anti-racism activists, are recognizing the humanity in the fact that it is a separate cause of action because the day that everything was raised that makes you Aliannah, who is protected, thousands of people, white, brown , black, regardless of things when he was and they say: "I'm new or whatever makes him who and what he is and I think that counts.

I'm not saying don't punish him for that, are you better society? Yes, he should be punished by you but if you choose to suspend him prayers for those you can't come and punish him when he's both the victim and a hero yeah there's no logic this is all pretty persuasive to you um not really because I'm big believer and don't call me a decent job because I actually said you sound like well I'm not worth John and I never knew you knew why I went up anyway the point is it's pretty clear here I understand where you're coming from but if we have guidelines and they are there and it is under review, you know, it is under review, criminal injuries compensation board and review due to unspent sentences and also, as you know, from 2017 to 2018 only £154 million was spent now .

I have appealed against criminal injuries for many years, rape victims left me. I tell you this: I put my money where my mouth is. They just gave them page four and if you want to put your money where your mouth is. 50 wait slightly and finish. I'll let you talk. 55,000 pounds, is it there? Yes, why not? Do that because my friend this week her daughter died, she couldn't get care on the NHS but there is no money left. I would say what we did was fundraise correctly so we will punish Roy just when he should get compensation because there is not enough money in a net NHS for other causes of action, it makes no sense doctor, I'm just saying now I'm NOT here to defend Laura Royal Anna.

I'm here to defend us all because this could easily be any of us one day, tomorrow we'll be good and she before God knows, whatever the reason, my point is that yes, we're talking about racist, we're talking about a man violent. I cannot at all condemn what he has done, but as a hero. as a victim of those terrorist attacks, are you kidding me?, he is sleeping on his friend's couch because he decided to fight, if I may know, he should be compensated, there has to be humor, now I'm going to talk, okay, this is my point , I would paint for you demand, you say there's another terrorist attack right on another

bridge

in London or Manchester or Birmingham right in three four weeks, God forbid, we get there later than that summer, so there's another attack and there's a man there or a woman, there is someone there who has criminal convictions. that haven't been spent and at that moment they have to make a decision, they go and stand up and try to defend the young women, the children, the black people, the white people, the brown people, whoever is sitting in that bar or restaurant, whatever they make that decision at that moment.

Do it knowing that if they get seriously hurt, this country won't give them any compensation and really won't care about them at all. I mean, what we want people to think about in that position, you know, so the answer is no, I think. We should make what I would call the right, common sense judgment. I'd say 95% of everyone responded here. He completely agrees with what the shoulders say that this is not some angelic guy who did bad things and continues to do that's what he still is, I imagine. quite traumatized by what happened to him, which may or may not be, you have the benefit of knowing everything about his past, you know everything about his past and you know everything about what he's been doing, but I know we have to ask .

Ourselves, do we want people in your position who maybe have commissioners who don't spend themselves? Do we want them to stand up and defend the people or not? In those eventualities, I do it and it is not an incentive for anyone to do everything if they are going to cut me. even the tapes my country will not even give me a path as I said before heroes come criminals and criminals can be heroes we are all human beings there are no blacks and whites more often the case of rehabilitation is about compensation and it is very important to understand that he is a victim and he is a hero this is a separate action and if you can use that as a mitigating factor to give him a suspended sentence yeah look back well we all know how that works because they clearly buckled under the pressure of the media. the review is taking place also I think I hope they look on the other side of the border all the victims migrate you know I agree I agree but this was an exception this was not just for an exceptional circuit that all of us that I have seen there It's where I come from where I could sell you my minute if I'm in a bar with my kids and three jihadists come armed with knives.

My conviction, I don't give a damn if Roy, as you know, has a troubled past. prepared to stand up and fight against them to say my life and the life of my children. Thank you Roy Lana, yes, sincerely, and I'm not thanking him for the other things, the bad things, I'm thanking him for his heroism in the moment, which was extraordinary. and he's fine, he's not allowed to get any gallantry medal. Instead, we will give knighthoods to corrupt businessmen. Okay, that's a government decision. I don't agree with that, but he can't get any gallantry medals because of his convictions.

Surely the least we can do is talk to the guy about being cut to pieces with 80 stitches, two cuts that could have killed him. “I mean, maybe you know what it is to give back to society what he did and to ever have a practice like what I do,” he continues. to be, I don't think he would pay as society will pay at that time. EJ, having gone to prison, was happy, too. When they convicted him, they should have made that trial, they called them because this is a hand of the law that does not speak to the other.

Yes, why Did they realize that he would be subject or we are potentially going to turn on the company, do we have to leave it? You've been great, thank you, you're back again, so you're always right.
