Have you been reading 50 shades?

Reading? He wrote the fucker, to his everlasting shame! He was so disgusted he threw the manuscript away and some Yank bint picked it up off of Kettering High Street and...well, the rest is history!

We had a visit from him a few weeks ago here in Hebden. He got arrested and then some of the locals had a naked and semi-naked protest in the centre of town the following Sunday in his support

 

[Orang Utan]

oh yeah... someone who shall remain nameless just reminded me you got your ginger cock out for thrills on the internet. My apologies for suggesting some bearded fop likes getting his cock out for thrills.

you were misinformed.
pissed again?

 

[SaskiaJayne]

This might have been asked before, but I can't be arsed to go through the whole thread to check... Anyhoo, what happens once he's banged up? Does he wear prison uniform, or does the nudiness continue in the clink?

 

[frogwoman]

I'd imagine that he doesn't get too much hassle in prison, mad feckers become instant celebrities with their fellow cons.

If he's nekkid, they'll keep him in the VPU, where all the weirdos, nonces and ex-coppers live, anyway.

He made it to Oxfordshire from Fife that's pretty impressive!

I hope he makes it home soon.

A triumph for common sense.

Lib Dem supporter, apparently!

......
Police confirmed the 53-year-old, from Eastleigh, Hampshire, was arrested in Carterton, Oxfordshire on 4 December.

He is probably trying to get back to Easleigh in time for the byelection!

I think that was frogwoman posting under his login.

FFS - 'nationwide ASBO' now!

[butchersapron]

That's what he gets for voting lib dem.

 

[Brixton Hatter]

so he'll end up back in prison then

 

[SaskiaJayne]

Asbo only effective to May 10th though & weather should warm up after that. Banned from being naked in all public places in the UK? We need a human rights lawyer quick......

 

[weltweit]

He is starting to look a little haggard, when he started out he was looking like the tough ex special forces person that he was, now he looks more like a clothless bum.

 

[weltweit]

Given that all the media coverage just seems to focus on court action and the like, I think he has forgotten his message, if he had one, because he still has adequate opportunity to get an agenda across but he seems not to be attempting so to do.

Perhaps he needs you as his PR guru.

“We sought an order for him to wear sufficient clothing in public to at least cover his genitalia and buttocks.

They seem to be saying officially that a teeny pair of speedos would be fine & not offend public decency in any context.

Clearly that won't be enough for him - is it any progress on what was required before though?

Isn't the general populace banned from that in all but a few public places anyway?

 

[DaveCinzano]

Not explicitly, no. Hence the issue taken up by Mr Gough and other naked ramblers like Vincent Bethell. Public nakedness is not solely in or of itself indecent, or indeed sexual.

 

[SaskiaJayne]

Its not illegal to be naked in public as the naked body itself is not regarded as obscene so you can't be done for any sort of sexual offence like indecent exposure if you are just naked. The 'catch all' law is 'conduct likely to cause a breach of the peace' ie your nakedness may cause others to break the law. The Asbo gives Gough less freedom than anybody else in the country & could probably be challenged in court. Interestingly most non sexual public nudity cases that do come before magistrates do not result in a conviction but an order for several £100s in costs as an incentive for not doing it again.

 

[SaskiaJayne]

Getting confusing now. Banged up again, I think.
