So 6 people cut through a fence at an RAF base and are ordered to pay the RAF £10 in compensation!?!?!
Will the judge explain what he considers good crime and what he considers bad crime?
Breaking in to any government facility that requires live-armed guards should not be treated so lightly. We need a way to separate the 'good people' and the 'bad people' and the fence line helps to delineate that. The courts should urgently consider the risk they are now exposing people to when they indicate through judgements such as this that the fence now means nothing.
Anyway, I'm off to park my car at Heathrow, just by the aircraft on the stand. It will save me loads of time and the fine is a hell of a lot less than the normal parking fees.
