Stansted 15: would they chain themselves to a plane again?

How far are you prepared to go to stand up for your beliefs? Two years ago, Ruth Potts and Mel Evans were part of a group that cut through an airport security fence and chained themselves to a Boeing 767. They did it to stop the Home Office deporting 60 people on a flight to Nigeria, Ghana and Sierra Leone. Along with the 13 other people they did this with, they became known as the Stansted 15 after being found guilty of endangering the safety of an aerodrome. They were sentenced today, following a judicial process that has been hanging over them for almost two years. They tell us whether it’s all been worth it and BBC Home Affairs correspondent Dominic Casciani helps us to decide whether they made a difference.
