Take up pimping underage girls, selling crack and robbing grannies.

So long as you put your trousers back on in public you'll be out in a month.

Strangely, repressed and prudish America has in certain states seen the light on this matter, and New York has famously repealed the nudity laws regarding women going topless in public.

I admire the man for his determination and strength of mind, but do think he's harming himself and his relationship with his children by persisting with his actions.

It honestly wouldn't bother me if he was to walk down my street naked, but then I'm one of those with a very open mind towards nudity from whoever may be practising it: male, female, short, tall, fat, thin, ugly or beautiful.

Just to reserect the thread.....no pun inteded......

Looks like he is due get out shortly, possibly as early as today!

Will be interesting to see what happens. From my point of view, fair play to the guy for his persistence, but, I draw a line at walking past playgrounds etc, thats just wrong. By all means exercise your rights but you cannot do so at the detriment to young ones etc.

As has been said, put your clothes on, go back home and walk around your living room butt naked if you so wish.

But isn't that his point? He wants to separate nudity from sex and actually very small kids are completely uninhibited like that.
He seems misguided to me - I don't see how views could ever change, but again, fair play to him for standing up for his beliefs.

He's become an expensive (£40k a year to keep someone in prison) pain in the ass now.

Jokes over Stephen, give it up or feck off lad.

Each to their own, but wandering around naked outside schools is neither funny nor proving a point.

One more chance, next time he's found out in the buff, concrete shoes and a deep lake treatment. Job done, problem solved.

Next?

Given theres 220 working days in a year, and assuming 8 hour shifts, and allowing for absence you need 5 people to cover one job 24*7*365. Prison wardens starting salary £25k per year?

Then building costs, security, feeding a watering the beggars, healthcare, etc.

I'm quite surprised it's only £40k per inmate. First time in a long time I've seen a bit of public spending quoted and not thought it's a rediculous overspend.

Starting wage for screws up here is more in the £15-16k region mate.

That was the figure quoted on the BBC article I saw about him.

Seriously?

You'd have to be pretty bloody desperate to do that job for that little money.

Can believe that!
My job is £22.5k+ in London 16-20k is the going rate here

Can't we just supply him with a straight jacket?

Not being funny, but how the hell do adults survive on that sort of money anywhere in the UK?
