Article on the BBC site said she  had to serve 40% of the sentence in jail.

Cheers for that. She should be in for a year then.

As with many of these very public cases, the judge's sentencing remarks are quickly made public.
Only 3 pages in the pdf, and available here; I'll not copy and paste the content as the forums swear filter might kick in. 😉

I know I’m going to get into trouble for this but that is a ridiculous sentence 

It is long. Probably a bit too long.

 

But, what sort of person calls for hotels full of human beings to be set on fire?  I can’t get my head around that at all.

Apparently a woman who's lost a child and then sees news of three little girls killed by an apparent immigrant . Not defending her but if this is true you , can see her anger .

I can. But I still can’t fathom how that translates to wanting to burn people out of their homes.

 

Its an incredibly vile thing to think of, and even more revolting to actually articulate it.

I reckon community service would have sufficed in this case.

Anger and emotion makes people say /do  stupid things but having said that , I don't disagree with you .

I suspect it's because they don't consider them as fellow human beings. To them, they are a lower form of life.

It's only because we have social media, that these stupid people influence many.
