So, here we are again, but this time we are hoping for the right result.

Paul Chambers, the man prosecuted for tweeting with “menace” when he said he would blow an airport “sky high” if it didn’t reopen in time for his flight, has decided to appeal against his conviction for a second time.

On Twitter today Chambers said: “Yes, probably to the detriment of my mental wellbeing, I am appealing the decision as best I can.”

But at least he can go into this appeal with the knowledge even more people are behind him.

Following his first appeal, the Twitterverse went mad in support for Chambers, with thousands of tweeters posting word for word the tweet which got him in trouble, adding the hashtag #iamspartacus in a vote of solidarity.

The campaign was splashed all over the mainstream media and got attention from well liked and intelligent comedians such as Stephen Fry, Graham Lineham and David Mitchell.

Fry might already have offered to pay the bills on behalf of Chambers, but it is not stopping there. A fund, which was set up after the conviction was first passed, has been brought back to life today and tweeters the world over are donating to help Chambers get justice.

They have already managed to get £400 in 40 minutes. If the momentum keeps up, the goal of £10,000 will be reached quite quickly.

Let’s hope with this huge support online, and three top lawyers versed in media and human rights law, Chambers can finally get this ludicrous conviction struck from the record and get back to his life, his lady and his daily tweets.
