A magistrate in Sheffield since 1996, he has campaigned for issues such as improving equality and inclusion in sport, supporting mental health and tackling deprivation.

The judge in the City of London magistrates' court ruled "despite a long history of complaints and correspondence the council has failed to act to stop the nuisance or has been wholly ineffective".

He also criticised the insults that the judges have received since handing down the sentence on Monday, as did Le Pen, who said any threats to magistrates were "unacceptable".

Mrs Spragg gave no indication of plea when she appeared before magistrates.

And any attempt to do so renders Boasberg and any other magistrate a “rogue judge.”
