How much money do you need to risk at the High Court to set yourself free?

The message Chambers tweeted stated: "Crap! Robin Hood airport is closed. You've got a week and a bit to get your st together, otherwise I'm blowing the airport sky high!!"

The case to uphold the conviction is simple: It doesn't matter if Mr Chambers' friends chortled as they read his tweet as a joke. It became a crime because anyone at all, of reasonable state of mind, could regard it as a genuine threat. And that's the argument he has to defeat.

And the court has essentially agreed with you on that this morning. Was a ridiculous prosecution in the first place, followed up with a few stupid judgments. They got to the right result in the end though, just after wasting a lot of time and money.
That was my point - how much money would you have to throw at it on the chance you still might not win?

I tried a few times to get the quotes right wink
