Richard Tice has formally requested Lord Hermer to appeal against the lenient sentence, highlighting public concerns about the disparity in sentencing for serious offenses versus protests.
The controversy intensified as individuals pointed out that sentences for climate activists blocking roads were longer than that handed to Edwards for his serious offenses involving child exploitation.
