Windrush great-grandmother faces spending her 80th birthday behind bars in row with housing association over security grill she installed to make her feel safe
Veronica Gordon, 79, has had the gate at the front of her flat for 30 years
She had council planning permission for it when it was first installed
But Eastend Homes say the metal grill represents a fire hazard
She has been engaged in a decade-long dispute with the housing association
She has been handed a six-month suspended sentence for Contempt of Court
