Content




It is inevitable that, being who I am, this blog will contain a fair bit of comment on legal matters, including those cases which come before me in court. However, it is not restricted to such and may at times stray ‘off-topic’ and into whatever area interests me at the time.

All comments are moderated but sensible and relevant ones, even critical ones, are welcome; trolling and abuse is not and will be blocked.

Any actual case that I have been involved in, and upon which I may comment, will be altered in such a way as to make it completely unidentifiable.

The Big Man

So the ‘big man’ of You Tube fame has been charged with assault after ejecting from a train a yob who was attempting to travel without a valid ticket. Needless to say, the miscreant who kept the train waiting for 10 minutes while he abused the conductor hasn’t been charged with anything, despite the fact that using abusive language and attempting to travel without a valid ticket are both against the law – well no surprise there then!
And the police wonder why they’ve lost the confidence of the general public.
I’ve come to the conclusion that this eagerness of the police to charge those who stick up for themselves and others is down to spite – they can’t, or more likely won’t, do anything to protect the general public but they’ll be damned if they’ll let anyone else do it.
