About the Book

Lawyers. The legal profession in the UK is riddled with corruption, greed, and self-interest. Justice in the UK has to be paid for privately and is prohibitively expensive. The legal system functions as a private club where defrauding clients is business as usual - it's what lawyers are world-famous for - not about delivering justice but emptying the pockets of clients whether it is embezzlement of legal-aid funds, perjury, assault or overcharging or just incompetence. There are many such lawyers in practice and this is a story of one of them. [Anonymous, Scottish Law Reporter, May 2009, edited].

Police. Frequently regarded as racist, sexist and plain dishonest, Some 309 police officers and PCSOs in the UK have been convicted of offences in the last three years. The offences include sex crimes, assaults and possessing indecent images of children, suspected collusion with drug-dealers and theft of drug cash ... and probably murder'. Refer to the 1987 axe-killing of private eye Daniel Morgan. However, only 25 of the 45 forces gave figures to the Press Association after a Freedom of Information request. A Home Office spokesman said that measures had been introduced to improve standards of behaviour in the police. The 20 forces who did not provide information said either that they could not reveal the number of convictions because of the cost of retrieving the information or just did not respond to the request.' [BBC Home Affairs correspondent, Danny Shaw]. The issues with the Met is just the beginning.In this book we see some examples.

The proportion of the UK population as a whole with criminal records is one in three men and one in eleven women [2001 Home Office survey]. That includes lawyers, police officers, judges, accountants, estate agents et al. Whether all those individuals concerned still work in those professions is a good question. Many of them still do ... and how many have not been caught? The police and the legal profession are made up of 'normal' people who can be tempted, diverted, stupid, lacking in common-sense, short-tempered, act like idiots - hate and love. Ergo, not the paragons of virtue we imagine them to be.
