Breivik says he won't appeal 21-year jail term over killings
The man behind the Oslo and Utoya Island attacks says he rejects the court’s legitimacy and therefore can’t appeal.
21-year-sentence does not mean Breivik will walk free in 2033. Here's why:
There is actually no limit to the number of times the court can extend the sentence.
Anders Behring Breivik found to be sane, sentenced to 21 years
The verdict was delivered at a court in Norway this morning.

Poll: Have you been on or are you planning a staycation this year?
WITH INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL essentially off the cards for the rest of the year, it seems a lot of people have bought into the concept of a staycation at home here in Ireland.
Social media platforms are flooded with #staycation posts in what will hopefully boost businesses in domestic tourism following a devastating period for the sector.
But with a spike in new cases in recent days, a regional lockdown in the Midlands, and new measures this week including the mandatory wearing of face masks in all shops and commercial premises, fears are mounting that we could be entering a second wave.
So today we’re asking: Have you been on or are you planning a staycation this year?
Poll Results:
Yes, I've already been on a staycation (4428)
No, I haven't been and have no plans for a staycation (3361)
Yes, I have a staycation planned in the coming months (2607)
No, I have not been on a staycation (985)
Yes, but I am going to cancel my planned staycation (254)
