    Sorry, I must have missed the news flash announcing that Boris had lifted the charge

    Good luck OH, and don't forget to demand costs for your time, and compensation for inconvenience and stress

          Have you been to the papers? Evening standard may very well be interested! Even the sun?

            Why don't you don a superhero costume and climb the Houses of Parliament ?

            That seems a perfectly rational thing to do, according to some on here.
            Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

              No point for just one case! If there are loads of you then great.

              Superheroes/parliament is so old hat! I have a great idea the papers will just love. The headline in the sun will be "Downing Streak".

                Nah.

                I think the headline is more likely to be "Are these men fit to be fathers ?", with an associatied article explaining that "their inherent instability and irrationality would suggest to many that they are not ideal role models for their offspring".

                  Didnt TFL come in for some particularly harsh criticism recently relating to how hard it was to get anything through appeal?

                  When you do go to court make sure you claim costs for your day off work (being an expensive contracator and all that) and everything else you can weasel in!

                    Btw, any idiot can sire offspring, it takes brains to abstain.
