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.

Jailed Labour expenses MP loses his £3,000 Rolex after attack by fellow inmate

Disgraced MP Elliot Morley has lost his £3,000 Rolex after he was assaulted by a fellow prisoner.

The former Labour Minister, who was jailed for 16 months for his part in the MPs’ expenses scandal, was set upon at Ford Prison in West Sussex.

The attack took place last month after Morley, 59, was approached in one of the corridors of ‘Billet H1’, the wing on which he is being held.

About Me - jailhouselawyer

jailhouselawyer: Hull, East Yorkshire, United Kingdom; John Hirst Hull, East Yorkshire, GB "Who is John Hirst?" the Sun online questioned the day after the UK lost its appeal to the Grand Chamber of the ECtHR in the prisoners votes case. The profile was not very informative nor flattering. But, I don't like the Sun either so we are quits. I was born, at 2 I was put into Dr Barnardo's Homes. What they called care, we refer to it as physical and sexual abuse. I drifted into crime, and spent 35 years in prison. In spite of the system, I reformed and rehabilitated myself with the support of some within and outside of the system. I was transformed from a law breaker into a law-maker. I am firmly committed to prisoners rights, and am a campaigner for penal reform. I live in a 3 bedroom terrace house within a cul-de-sac, and have a dog as a companion. My Latvian friend keeps invading my space and telling me I need a wife. She does keep the house clean and tidy, but loves my dog and calls him her boyfriend... Recently, Viking FM have asked for advice and reports for the news on radio on Criminal Justice issues. In addition, I used to write regularly for Inside Time the National newspaper for prisoners.
