Mr Dinu had told the Channel 5 programme that he and other Romanians had come to the UK because it was a “soft touch” the court heard.
And what happens when people object? Why, the fearless guardians of society spring into action .... to see
the complainers punished:
Hawksby was arrested after his picture was taken by University of York Professor Nick Brown, who shared the images with North Yorkshire Police on Facebook.
Hawksby told officers: “He is not even from York. It costs 23 to 25 quid on the train so he must be earning some right money busking.”
Hawksby denied racially aggravated threatening behaviour but was convicted.
He was given a four month suspended jail sentence and ordered to pay £100 costs and an £80 surcharge.
If he takes up busking to pay for it, will North Yorkshire Police tolerate him, I wonder?

The story has gone all coy about naming Nik Brown, who has now pissed-off the fraudster who, to be fair, was not the one who called the cops.

Photo warning - central casting sociologist.
It was not preached to the crowd,
It was not taught by the State.
No man spoke it aloud,
When the English began to hate.
Rudyard Kipling
The day is getting closer.
"Photo warning - central casting sociologist."
Blimey, you're not wrong!
