Golding has been jailed for 18 weeks while Fransen, who made headlines after her racist videos were retweeted by President Trump, was handed a 36-week sentence.

The pair were arrested in May last year after distributing leaflets and posting of online videos during a trial at Canterbury Crown Court, where three Muslim men and a teenager were convicted of rape and jailed.

Fransen went to the Kent home of one of the defendants, Tamin Rahmani, and shouted racist abuse through the front door.

His pregnant partner Kelli Best said she was alone with their two children, aged three years and 18 months, at the time of the incident on May 9 last year.

On a video played to the jury at Folkestone Magistrates' Court, Fransen could be seen banging on the door and shouting: "Come out and face me you disgusting rapist, come on."

Fransen denied using the phrase "Muslim bastards", or saying that all Muslims are rapists.

Golding said he was only acting as Fransen's cameraman, and that it was her campaign.
