Supporting Sam & Laura at this Difficult Time

UPDATE: Firstly, we would like to thank everyone who has donated so generously to this campaign, from the bottom of our hearts we are thankful for such a wonderful outpouring of support.
Secondly, as most of you will now be aware, Sam has been sentenced to two years custodial sentence. Sam is now incarcerated in a British prison for the 'crime' of producing messages the prosecution admitted were 'totally lawful'. What's more, under this particular law, the Judge reminded that the jury that the 'truth was no defence'. This campaign will remain live for the duration of Sam's imprisonment and the money raised will support Sam's pregnant wife Laura and their child Catherine. 

Today Sam Melia was found guilty of speech crimes in Leeds Crown Court. Sam produced over 300 stickers bearing a number of slogans, during the opening stages of the trial the prosecution admitted that the language used on the stickers was in fact lawful. During the trial the jury was told that it did not matter whether the content of the stickers was true, as the truth is no defence in such a case. This has to be one of the greatest miscarriages of justice we have ever witnessed, a body of work which was deemed 'lawful' and the content of which was all true, has resulted in a man being found guilty on the basis of his perceived motivations. 

Sam is a husband to a Laura, a father to Catherine and has another baby on the way in just 12 weeks. Sam is a hard working man with a big heart who has always gone out his way to help others and support those around him who were in need of help. Now Sam needs your help.

Sam will be sentenced on March 1st and it is likely he will face a custodial sentence measured in years. Before that happens, it would be great to raise a small sum in order for Sam to take his family away for a week to allow them to have a break from what has been, and continues to be, a nightmare that has lasted yeas.

Throughout all of this, Sam and Laura have remained strong and upbeat, and amazingly, both of them are still smiling and remain committed to the struggle. Please consider giving a small amount to help them in their time of need.

This is the price for tailing the truth in this country. Is this what evil looks like ?.

The world is a dangerous place to live. Not because of the people who are evil. But because of the people who don't do anything about it. A quote from Albert Einstein

Happy Birthday Laura! Sending you and your lovely family so much love from New Zealand. We hope you have a lovely day! Sam should be with his girls, only pure evil would keep such a beautiful family apart! Sam did nothing wrong, you are 100% in the right. You and Sam are amazing, those persecuting you are 100% in the wrong. Sam and Laura deserve to be King and Queen!

A political show trial if ever there was one - jailed for political beliefs. I never thought I'd see the UK sink to the level of China and North Korea. The British establishment is evil, sick and corrupt beyond belief - they're a pack of extreme left-wing fascists. "Fight the good fight of faith." 1 Timothy 6:12
