Same thing happened to me once.
I was offloading this pile of lead flashing off the church roof.
A copper came up to me and said "What are you doing?"
I explained that I was removing the old lead so that it could be replaced with new.
He Said "Who told you to do it, And at 2 AM?"
"Bulgger!" I said, "I'm so busy, I forgot I didn't have a contract to do the job"
These things do happen see

I represented myself because I thought I had to stand up for myself
Did she not pay attention at her UK citizenship classes? A legal aid brief would not only have got her off but won her compensation for the distress caused.

F--k her.
