There's no way they'll serve 4 years or anything like that so let's not pretend otherwise. I'd be very surprised if they do more than 18 months and not at all surprised if it turns out to be even less. Frankly I'd be quite happy for anyone who incites the sort of rioting we all witnessed with its potential for huge damage and loss of life to be locked up for 4 years.
