Outcry over prisoners claiming student grants
"Prisoners have claimed at least £500,000 in student grants and loans for taking courses while in jail, it has been disclosed.
Ministers said the payments - usually made to help university students pay for food and rent - had been made because of a loophole in the student loans system".
Judge regrets jailing man in neighbour feud
"A judge has spoken of his "regret" at having to jail a pensioner for five years for firing a pistol at a neighbour's car after a long-running feud".
Man jailed for helping wife flee social services
"A father has been jailed for helping his pregnant wife flee abroad because she was terrified that social services would take her baby".
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.
