Chris Huhne and Vicky Pryce jailed 8 month apiece.

If society wants law and order, they must be prepared to pay for it. And it's important that justice is seen to be be done, especially as the criminals are from the well off end of society - otherwise it would look like jail for the hard up criminals and non-custodials for the well heeled.

IMHO

on one hand have they got off lightly only serving 62 days?
But on the other they are hardly a danger to society so why the hell should we pay for their bed and board for the next 4 months. I'd say as long as they have to meet some onerous conditions like a curfew or having to report to a police station 20 miles from home every Friday night at 8 o'clock I figure its best to let them out.

Ideally, one that involves having to drive past a few speed cameras.

Once they moved from a proper prison to an open one it didn't seem to serve a lot of purpose keeping them there. A short sentence followed by community punishment would have probably been better. The publicity should serve as a warning to others.

And we all know that won't happen
