@ghost_wales Another joke sentence. Should be 25 years to life minimum.

A driver who killed a four-year-old girl in a crash as she walked home from Eid celebrations with her family has been jailed for three years and 10 months.
The siblings of Mayar Yahia watched as she was struck by Javonnie Tavener's car when it mounted pavement in Birmingham in April 2024 as he sped to overtake another vehicle, Friday's sentencing hearing was told.
He waited at the crash scene for nine seconds before reversing, dragging the child. He then fled on foot, phoning his girlfriend to collect him.
At Birmingham Crown Court after reviewing dashcam footage, the judge asked why Tavener had been charged with causing death by careless and not dangerous driving, which has a harsher penalty.
Mayar died at the scene of the crash in which two other people were hurt. At a previous court hearing, in addition to pleading guilty to causing death by careless driving, Tavener, 23, of no fixed address, admitted causing serious injury by careless driving.
He additionally admitted causing death while driving uninsured.
In a statement read to the court on Friday, Mayar's father Babiker Yahia explained how the family lived near the crash scene on Upper Highgate Street, presenting them with a "constant reminder" of the events.
"I stayed with Mayar when she was taken from the collision and transported to hospital - that night will remain with me forever," he said.
The court heard from the prosecution that Tavener did not call for help from emergency services when he crashed. Instead, after he and a passenger left on foot, he phoned his girlfriend to collect him, which she did.
At about 22:15 BST, about an hour after the crash, Tavener returned to the scene on foot and was arrested.
Sentencing, the judge said Tavener had driven at excessive speed while trying to overtake another vehicle in a 20mph zone at night, "with cannabis in your system and using a phone".
He told the defendant: "The victim was a vulnerable pedestrian - you were on your phone, it was a car with no insurance. You said you were a rear passenger instead of the driver. The passenger's post-incident conduct was as disgraceful as yours.
"You abandoned the car at the scene, after reversing, presumably to try to leave, dragging little Mayar. You walked off calling for your girlfriend.
"The callous way in which you walked away from the mayhem was sickening to watch. You blamed a phantom driver."
The court heard that while overtaking, the front of Tavener's vehicle came into contact with the rear of the other, which is how he ended up mounting the pavement, and hitting the pedestrians.
It was dashcam footage from that other vehicle that was reviewed by the judge before sentencing.
There were audible gasps as the footage was played in court on Friday.
At the same hearing in which he was sentenced to 46 months in prison for the motoring offences, Tavener, for unrelated crimes, was given an additional 18-month jail term in relation to an assault, with three months to run concurrently for battering, bringing his total sentence on Friday to 64 months.
He was also banned from driving for six years.

@AmosMurphy_ Never a handball. It's getting ridiculous the number of pens for handball incidents.

@TuckerClemens Of course they can sell the property. The landlord owns it. I'm all for giving tenants some rights but you can't tell the owner what they should and shouldn't do with their own property. Sorry

@cfs_jo @paullewismoney @Motability Not true. You sacrifice some of your benefit but the car is discounted. If you were to lease a car outside of motability the cost would be at least double, maybe even treble the monthly cost.
English

@paullewismoney @Motability People need to know that disabled/sick get the same amount of money in benefits whether they have a car or not. Abolishing Motability won’t save a penny.
If politicians don’t know that, then shame on them.
English

For nearly 50 years @Motability has given back mobility to disabled people. Founded by Lords Goodman and Sterling under the finest disability Minister we have had, Alf Morris. It uses the benefit he created to lease cars. I have never known this scheme so under ignorant attack.

@Jenny_1884 Definitely being abused. I know of three people who have cars and shouldn't as they have been gifted by grandparents to children and grand children.

BREAKING: NADINE DORRIES DEFECTS TO REFORM UK.
Huge gain for Nigel Farage's party.
Nadine tried so damn hard to save the Conservatives.
She exposed the rot behind the plot against Boris Johnson.
She's not the usual Tory.
The game is changing...
Rt Hon Nadine Dorries@NadineDorries
The Conservative Party cannot win the next election. It removes election winning prime ministers, and replaces them with duds. Here’s why I’ve joined Reform… dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

@clim8resistance @Ed_Miliband You are confusing gas with electric
English

@Ed_Miliband You're just a liar.
Our high energy prices are NOTHING to do with the price of gas.
The price of gas on the market is 2.796p per kWh. So the fuel cost of power from gas is about 5.6p/kWh.
The Ofgem price cap for power is 26.35p/kWh. That's 20.75p/kWh more.
STOP LYING!
