Me. It’s not even close if you want my honest answer. Part of being clever is surely recognising what is important in life, including the respect of others and recognising when you have enough - which I most certainly do, in multiple ways.

Not sure I’d describe him in those terms. Astute with a good nose for monetising a business, but the **** isn’t ‘very clever’ or anything vaguely resembling that based on his frequent inability to formulate a coherent argument.

The slimy **** makes my fucking skin crawl.

I could invent a more dystopian image with great ease.

Palmer v R [1971] AC 814 is the principal case in relation to what constitutes reasonable self defence. From Lord Morris’ judgment: “If there has been an attack so that the defence is reasonably necessary, it will be recognised that a person defending himself cannot weigh to a nicety the exact...

It really is incredible what they have done.

Not sure if they are higher than ever because in preindustrial times people were hanged for stealing sheep but prison sentences are certainly higher than they have been for about a century. Certainly in the last 30 years sentences have been going steadily up especially for serious violence and...

It’s not completely out of the question I guess (so not quite 100%!) but to get a silk to defend you on legal aid you would need a legal aid order from a court because a KC’s brief fee and daily refresher are discernibly higher than a junior’s (about double at a guess) although no more than a...

He’s certainly obdurate and resilient when it comes to self-preservation. Anyone comparing him unfavourably to Truss plainly isn’t capable of objective thought on him. He definitely has some positive qualities, but not enough of them and not where it matters.

Interesting that they stridently posit that if City are cleared (other) clubs will question the sporting integrity of the competition, rather than whether the competition’s administrative body is fit for purpose, which would surely be the correct issue to identify in those circumstances. What...

Didn’t get that far tbh. My analysis was based on the first five minutes or so.

It won’t be legal aid if they’ve instructed a silk for an ABH trial. It will have 100% been privately paid, possibly from crowd funding or a wealthy relative. They won’t get those costs back either, despite the outcome.

Hate filled ****, true or not.

My spider senses are telling me Wayne Rooney is involved, as is his engorged penis.

Might be a present from Wayne?

We’ll see. Doesn’t seem to have worked for the last 13 years.

Maybe they weren’t insured?

Yes, I’m ashamed to be of less reputable worth than those two gentlemen. And it’s Savile with one ‘l’. Show some fucking respect for the dead!

Terrible business. Poor lad. Horrible way to go.
