This story from 2021 escaped my notice, apparently. A man armed with a crossbow and apparently on an assassin's mission to kill Queen Elizabeth (!) has been sentenced to 9 years in prison.
I suppose it would have a traitor's death, had he succeeded??
Then again, this is England so I’m surprised that he got 9 years. I’d have expected some kind of Community Order and a £200 fine that he would be allowed to pay off at £5 per week. Then a free week in Cornwall to help him get over the mental anguish of the fine.
