Eight months jail for peace activist

New Zealander Christiaan Briggs has been sent to jail in the UK for eight months for his assault on teenager Billy Leeson, which left Leeson in a coma (who has had four brain operations since and is still in pain). Briggs had *not* been drinking when he assaulted Leeson.

Briggs is a former Green candidate, a peace activist and Iraqi human shield.

Are We Lumberjacks thinks the sentence is ridiculously light.
