Two plead guilty to UK banknote tweets

Written By Unknown on Selasa, 07 Januari 2014 | 23.46

TWO people have pleaded guilty to sending "menacing" tweets to a feminist campaigner following her successful campaign to ensure a woman features on British banknotes.

John Nimmo, 25, and Isabella Sorley, 23, admitted a charge of sending the messages in July last year to 29-year-old student Caroline Criado-Perez.

Nimmo, from Tyne and Wear, and Sorley, from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, sent the tweets after the Governor of the Bank of England Mark Carney revealed that Pride and Prejudice author Jane Austen would replace Charles Darwin as the face of the STG10 note.

The announcement was hailed as a "brilliant day for women" by Criado-Perez.

She led a high profile campaign to ensure a female face on British banknotes in the wake of the Bank's announcement in April that social reformer Elizabeth Fry was to be dropped from the STG5 note in favour of Winston Churchill.
