Man who shouted ‘you’re not English any more’ at police jailed

A 67-year-old man is jailed for 20 months after pleading guilty to violent disorder and causing religiously aggravated distress.

David Notley, of Buckhurst Hill, Epping Forest, was sentenced at Inner London Crown Court, after he shouted “you’re not English any more” at a police officers during a demonstration on Whitehall.

The court heard that members and supporters of far-right organisations took part in the protest on 31 July, and that Notley made his way to the front of the crowd and confronted police in a “fighting pose”, surging back and forth.

He helped push another demonstrator into a police officer which “precipitated a physical confrontation involving the police (and) demonstrators”, the prosecutor Alex Agbamu said, and then remained at the front of the crowd.
