Mr Stubbs said the trial cost £250,00 as though we should be outraged; I say that's a bargain. There are plenty of things that are a complete waste of taxpayer's money, but this is not even close to being one of them. Yes, it's only a two-year sentence, but it's at least some form of justice.
What an incredibly sad story. All I can think of are the people waiting for him to arrive on the ferry. I have a cycling trip coming up, and to think of all that excitement and build-up turning into something like this is heart-breaking.
