From that still all I can think of is : duh duh duh It's fun to stay at the Y M C A

I remember a time when 2 men wouldn't advertise the fact they were going head to head on Hampstead Heath

I fear you mean "that soon-to-be former barrister". I can't see how he gets out of these troubles.

Try Rez on the Oculus - amazing

Maybe it's short for "The group, Daft Punk, is playing at my house"?

My son has an encyclopedic knowledge of what Netflix have in almost every country his VPN allows him to 'be' in.

Of course if it is only defendants who are a security risk who go in the dock then juries or magistrates seeing a defendant in the dock will know they are a security risk which isn't very fair on that defendant.

The thigh contains the femoral artery, which if you shot it would be likely to kill them and quickly without rapid medical assistance.

Fantastic challenge of guess the court from the evidence of a canteen window (bar mess given everyone in court dress?) with a window which is opposite a balcony.

Fascinating article - thanks for sharing - but it was first published in 2020 (ironically given the difficulties of travel at that time).

I assume the value of the steaks was under 200 pounds (hence effective maximum of 26 weeks) and the reduction was because 2/3 of 26 weeks is under 18 weeks imprisonment (hence the 17)?

Or the Silvertown tunnel?

Oh dear. This clearly has further legs with the BSB at least.

Are you sure that wasn't in front of a real live High Court Judge in the aptly titled room 101?

This is democracy manifest

see www.sentencingcouncil.org.uk/overarching-...

whilst he could have said more this is clearly a reference to the imposition guideline and stating his decision that "Appropriate punishment can only be achieved by immediate custody"

"an immediate custodial sentence is, in my judgment,
necessary both as a punishment and as a deterrence" is the reason he gave

Diplomacy

But would the situation be different if rather than an AST it was a licence which was withdrawn? Then it might be residential squatting which is a criminal offence now.

Isn't speeding a maximum £1,000 fine? But does he appeal with the risk of getting more than 5 points?

A short treasury tag works a treat - plastic ended better than metal for scratches.

In that under the schedule the starting point for an 18 year old would be 30 years (but obviously for a single offence which this was far from). I'm interested the Judge didn't show more of his working to get to 52 but assume the Court of Appeal will get a go one way or the other.

There are some difficult tensions in the Sentencing Act. S.259 seems to indicate the sentences for murder should be detention at his majesty's pleasure not custody for life. S.321 seems to confirm the "requirement" for a whole life order if he was over 18 but schedule 21 seems to be different

The Beeftles

"11 court rooms (at the Bailey) stand empty - that's nearly half" - eh? Last time I was there there were only 18 courtrooms not at least 23.

Also did he film this on 2nd or 3rd January?

Some bloody headline about stolen condoms or something.

'Robbed for her pleasure'

That is superb.

Good point - although as the maximum penalty is £50 I would make a similarly small wager the CPS would not consider it in the public interest to prosecute such matters.
