From NewsthumpConvicted armed robber, Frank Murphy expressed his elation at the prospect of exchanging a manly fumble at Her Majesty’s behest for a huge paycheck under the guise of ‘news’.

“Mr Clifford says he has nothing to hide – and if the rumours about the size of his penis are anything to go by – he would appear to be telling the truth,” he told us.

“The thought of him bedding down for the evening beneath a cheap nylon blanket on a rock hard pillow doesn’t just fill the general public with a warm feeling – that extends to us cons too.”

“To think that for the kind of invasion of privacy that he sought to exploit through his media interests could now be replicated by a troupe of hulking criminals for a large pot of honestly earned money, well.”

“Let’s just say there are lots of fags being exchanged for vaseline as we speak.”'"

It might help if a) you followed the trial before making yourself look foolish and b) read the summing up by the judge before dismissing the case in such a trivial way.

It's clear from the judge's summing up and also from what reporters and experts have said, that the evidence was strong. www.judiciary.gov.uk/Resources/J ... ifford.pdf

In terms of the offences some are taking far more seriously under the 2003 legislation and carry much tougher sentences. For example rape which is what some of the charges he was found guilty of are now.

Once you recognise all of the above you might actually realise that the BJS is excellent. It's not perfect, but it's one of the best systems in the world which he served us well for many years.
