Instead of keeping him in big prison, why don't they just put in his willy in prison like in the olden days?

You've got to start thinking that he has some mental health issues, really.

Or just very stubborn?

Just cos the guy likes to be naked does not mean he has mental health issues!

maybe but I can't see how 60 seconds of standing outside with no kit on is any sort of payoff for the consequent 2 years in prison.
fact is most people don't want to see some blokes meat and 2 veg swinging along as he strides down the street. If he can't empathise with their point of view and modify his behaviour accordingly after all this time then he's got 'issues' imo.
[edit]
Just cos the guy likes to be naked does not mean he has mental health issues!
imo if he wants to be naked everywhere in spite of the rest of society then he's got issues. He could put a speedo on and achieve 95% nakedness...
He may not be 'mad' but he's clearly not understanding that his behaviour will continue to be met with imprisonment and no one wants that, probably including him?

He has been repeatedly arrested in the street outside Perth Prison by police waiting for him to be released at the end of each sentence.
This is a bit wrong though. I though breach of the peace required people to complain about him or for him to offend some one. Having the police wait for him outside the jail isnt giving him much of a chance is it... or is it just proactive policing?

any constable or citizen can make an arrest in order to prevent a breach of the peace.
The common law power to prevent a breach of the peace is enjoyed by every constable and citizen. It is subject to a duty to seek to prevent by arrest or other action short of arrest any breach of the peace occurring in his presence, or any breach of the peace which, having occurred, was likely to be renewed, or which was about to occur. The leading authority being Albert v Lavin [1982] HL.

It's a joke.
Let him go about his business...if he's naked whilst going about said business, So ****! Not like he's wandering around school playgrounds with a boner.
If I cycled past him, he'd get a cheery 'hello' like everyone else gets, I'm sure he would wave back.Posted 9 months ago # -
With what though

i'm guessing if he didn't want the sentence he would just put some togs on?
maybe carry a fig leaf for special occasions such as court appearances?

Breach of the peace is a different kettle of fish in Scotland.

I really don't get what the fuss is about...so he likes to walk around naked, so what?
Having said that, I was a little shocked to see a man taking a dump on the pavement with everything from waist down on display on the Brighton Road in Croydon yesterday morning but I put that down more to the act he was performing rather than the nakedness. If he hadn't stood up to wipe his arse and faced oncoming traffic, I think it would have been a little more discreet.

95% nakedness
the word for 95% naked is clothed which is not naked. Can I be 95% dry [naked] without being wet[clothed]?I dont see why the naked form is vulgar tbh. Personally I dont understand what he is trying to achieve by his constant actions.

Is he naked in prison?
Posted 9 months ago # -
The guy is an idiot,. It has been made totally clear to him that his antics will not be accepted in scotland. He will continue to be jailed until he behaves. its a simple as that. don't try to out stubborn scottish law

I'm hoping they at least TRY to provide the poor guys with clothes before he leaves prison, otherwise they may just be arresting him as he makes a desperate bid for the nearest clothes shop

If he's always naked, in Scotland, then he must have mental health issues, as it's always bloody freezing up there!
In fact many Scottish folk are in fact a strange pale blueish colour.
No it's true.

Not naked in British Law, either, if he's got his cobbly bobblers covered up.
The Law is about 'indecent exposure'. Not every situation where someone is naked will be an offence; only if there is some form of intent to offend, afaik.
Case in point: Naked Bike Ride. People don't get nicked on that, do they? Even though they are riding stark bolly naked around London. Might be something to do with it being a demonstration, I dunno.
Mind you, we're a bit more open minded to such things down here, so maybe we're just not as easily offended as the prudish Scots...
(I do hope that isn't offensive; tried to find as inoffensive a pic as possible and it's in context of the discussion but mods please feel free to remove if necessary)

I was in Croatia last month and there were naturists galore. Loads of old wrinklies cruising round in their boats giving a cheery wave to the tourists-it would be cheaper for tax payers if we just packed him off to a holiday home there. Is it actually against the law to get your danglies out in Britain or have they just got it in for the guy?
Posted 9 months ago # -
Nudity itself isn't actually against the Law afaik; it's all about context, behaviour of the nudist, etc.
Hence why the cyclists above aren't breaking any laws.

So what did he do on the way out of prison then that was considered poor behaviour - wave it around like a lasso to try and snare one of the waiting plods!?
