    >According to the prosecution, Gill’s first offence was committed after a trip to Ukraine in October 2018 to visit pro-Russia TV channels 112 Ukraine and NewsOne. He was joined by fellow MEPs David Coburn and Jonathan Arnott. A few weeks later, all three men made strikingly similar statements to the European Parliament. with Gill reading from a script that had been agreed with intermediary Oleg Voloshyn, in return for “souvenirs”, “Xmas gifts” and “postcards”. For this count alone, Gill was sentenced to five years.

    I wonder if this first one was a test case. The other two UKIP MEPs could be seeing a sentence soon enough. Who knows how many more.
