Hate preacher Anjem Choudary has been charged for 'inviting support for the so-called Islamic State', and could serve upto 10 years in prison, if convicted. He has currently been remanded in custody until 28th August.

Mr Choudary has allegedly living on benefits in Britain, while preaching against Britain and British ways of life. He has also been alleged to have praised the killers of Drummer Lee Rigby, supporting ISIS as somewhere he 'would love to live', whilst being relatively unscathed by the law.

Speaking from the dock at a packed out Westminster Magistrates’ Court, Choudary reportedly attempted to use his plea to condemn Prime Minister David Cameron and the British system, for war crimes. He has also apparently demanded to represent himself and proclaimed that a Sharia Court would ‘treat him better’.
