2. UK (Northern Ireland).

3. Judged a potential danger to public safety. Remanded without charge (meaning I was jailed without access to legal representation).

4.  I was arrested as I was leaving a football match, taken to jail, held for a week, then appeared in court where I was remanded pending investigation. I was held for seven months, then released.

5.  I could have got as much as 20 years hard.  What I did get was a bill for room and board while I was in prison.

 A BILL?  Fucking arseholes.

Bloody Brits and clinging to their tattered remnants of Empire.

I have always supported the unification of Ireland**. I also understand, but do not support the terrorist acts of any army or  organisations


** Australian by birth, Irish Celt by blood, both sides (Clare and Galway)

Their 'logic' was that if you're guilty, then you're supposed to be in prison, so the State should feed and house you.  If it turns out that you were innocent (or charges not proved), then you should have, by rights, been on the outside earning money and supporting yourself.  The terrific idiocy of this position eventually led to the policy being scrapped.

On the plus side, it wasn't a law, just an administrative policy, so they had no way to enforce collection.  I recall reading about one bloke who was remanded for a few weeks.  When he got out, he wrote a letter to the Belly Telly saying he wasn't paying, so they could feel free to repossess his time in jail.
