Citizen Kane to become Prisoner Kane?

Rosie Kane of the Scottish Socialist Party is upset because she hasn't been sent to jail.
Other reports quote the ever delightful Miss Kane as having said that while not in a hurry to go to prison, she had been keen to see the matter resolved as quickly as possible.
In that case why not just pay the fine in the first place? Or does she need a brief stint in the jail to validate her self-proclaimed virtue as a true Socialist martyr?
Perhaps a gagging order of some sort might be more appropriate? Given the verbal skitters (an evocative Scots term for diarrohea in case you didn't know) that she and her blethering Trotsky-ite chums suffer from so acutely, this would also give us a certain amount of peace & quiet. More importantly, it would also prevent the Scottish Prison Service (and ultimately the tax payer) becoming part of the SSP's quite reckless thirst for publicity.
