    Seriously. I’ve seen letter openers more threatening than that “sword”. Was it dumb? Sure. Does he deserve a slap the wrist, absolutely. But prison?? No way. What the actual fuck?

      The stupid thing is that the UK is literally running out of prison spaces currently so that we are considering letting long term prisioners out on licence early to free up room.

      Yet apparently this man needs to have his life turned upsidedown in order to occupy one of those spaces for four months.

        The cells are probably crammed full of cosplayers, student protestors and journalists. Remember that massive ruckus and manhunt for thee guy who was wandering around in a gimp suit making people feel uncomfortable?

      It’s OK though because as soon as the prison guards turn their backs on him he will immediately escape on an eight inch paraglider.
