My 60th birthday party: A night to remember

My 60th birthday party: A night to remember


Kate Flanagan a long time supporter and friend

Father Ted Flanagan his wife Kate claims he is the only non paedophile Catholic priest

Professor Kathleen Lennon and the Ipswich football hooligan Daniel L. Vulliamy

John Flanagan one of Ted and Kate's children (they are all lawyers!)

Elkan Abrahamson who took the Prisoners Votes Case to Europe, and a rather camera shy Maureen Lennon, 18 year old daughter of Kathleen and Humphrey

Humphrey Forrest, Employment Tribunal Judge, as a solicitor at the Humberside Law Centre he took my first case against the Prison Service to County Court and won.

Liana my girlfriend and Daiga her daughter

It's was a great celebration at the Ruby Lounge in Hull, and it is also the 60th birthday of the European Convention of Human Rights. Unfortunately Flo Krause the barrister who took my case to the ECtHR was too busy with the B&B she and her partner run in Hebden bridge, and Lucy (Daniel's partner) was tied up with the kids.

  2. Calum: Thanks.

    A tad fragile today...

    The other week a Park Warden called me a sad old man. With friends and supporters like mine I am not sad.
