"Passing sentence, Mr Justice Johnson said the activist has not shown any remorse and has been found to be committed contempt of court on three previous occasions, adding that he “regards himself as above the law”. “The breaches were not accidental or negligent or merely reckless,” he said. “Each breach of the injunction was a considered and planned and deliberate and direct and flagrant breach of the court’s order.” "He continued: “Nobody is above the law.

"Coach Anthony Wright was proud of Swansea City Under-21s' battling performance following their last-gasp 2-1 victory over West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns. Swansea led with 10 minutes played after Aimar Govea's cross was turned into the back of his own net by Muhamed Diomande. And the visitors retained their lead at the break with Richard Faakye and Iestyn Jones to the fore defensively. However, the hosts levelled through Oliver Bostock in the final quarter of the contest. But Govea netted a dramatic last-gasp winner to claim all three points under the lights in the Premier League Cup contest. "I'm really proud of the players' efforts. We haven't played in around three and-a-half weeks, and at times it showed with a little lack of consistency and momentum," said Wright. "We had to defend our box extremely well at times, and I thought the boys did that brilliantly against a good category one side who kept throwing everything at us. "West Brom played with such high intensity, and we had to step up to that at times. They play the likes of Manchester United and Tottenham week-in, week-out. "We played some terrific football at times, their application was great. Ben Hughes got himself some good saves in goal, and it was good to see him play. "And a last-minute winner is always a great feeling, you could see that by the way the boys celebrated together. "They showed great desire and courage to dig deep in the final minutes, you could see some were struggling but they kept going. "To top it off, we played at a Championship stadium, which is an experience the boys need more of, it’s always a great occasion for them." https://www.swanseacity.com/news/anthony-wright-boys-showed-desire-and-courage |
