His fate is a maximum sentence of 21 years in prison, unfortunately.

No it's incorrect. 21 is 'officially' the maximum prison sentence but they renew it after that. Breivik is sentenced to 'containment' which will be life long, he will be kept in isolation. He'll never get out of prison.
Unfortunately foreign media don't understand this system and people like to make a thing out it.

Thanks for clearing that up, Millie. I was unaware of this.

Why publish Breivik trial on TV? All it will do is influence more Neo-Nazis. Brev can only get 21 years in jail. If he was in US he would get death penalty. Typical European laws too soft on criminals.

It isnt to long until UK produces a Breivik, what with all the multiculturalism and foreign people and belief that is now in the UK. A lot of UK people dont like it not sure why. that breivik has character, maybe a next Adolf Hitler?

Actually, he gets 21 years max without review to see if he is rehabilitated, if he's not, then he can serve life except with checks every 5 years.
