Your rights on arrest - legal help and useful information
And never accept a caution if you've done nothing; you're admitting you've done something wrong if you do.
We strongly recommend that you:
- make "no comment" to all questions
- don't write a statement
- don't sign a statement written by the police
- don't sign any police book
...until you have seen a solicitor
Come to think of it, the bill says people will be means tested. That's going to take a while The copper at the police station who holds the pen for you to sign the police book is going to need a lot of patience. Presumably most people currently just sign whatever is handed to them and don't ask for a solicitor.Comment

I have already decided in the highly likely even of being arrested I will answer no comment to everything whether I did it or not. Whilst a lot of cops must be decent and honest they (I know from personal experience - not arrested) can trust their copper's "nose" and experience a little too much at times - i.e. if they think, however misguidedly that you did something, they will do their best to get you to say so, or to make it look as if you are a wrong 'un or have something to hide, whatever the facts are.Comment
