Haven't tried doing a link before, so if it doesn't work I'm sorry!

He's paid to defend people. That's his job. He's good at it. The best.
If he didn't do it, someone else would. That is the nature of our legal system. What would you like really, for the defendant to have no legal representation? Hung out before it even got to trial?

I believe that the CPS has a special barrister who is specialising in prosecuting Freeman's cases and is starting to make an impact on the number of cases he wins.
There is a concept of the "spirit" of the law - Freeman has no respect for that and therefore I have little respect for him.

Err excuse me Mr Freeman
The Range Rover Bluetooth system works absolutely fine because there are notices around the factory asking staff to turn Bluetooth off as it picks up bloody everything.
I know it works.
Anyway. Dumb cow should have pulled over and called the person back.
On high horse now!

I just think that people who have done something wrong are massive Twonks, if they don't just admit it and take their punishment.
Anyone can do something wrong, only complete Twonks don't just say, "Sorry I'm a massive Twonk, I won't do it again, and pay the fine, do the sentence, or take the ban, you don't take up court time, spend pointless money on defending yourself,
Once you are on my Twonk list you can't get off until you make it right.
Twonk- gender neutral encompassing word, combining twat and wanker, for inclusive abuse.
He is a Twonk, for his stupid statements, but his clients are massive Twonks, who need to redeem themselves.

What he says is "On rape, he warns that women need to "take responsibility" for how they dress. "As a red-blooded alpha male," Nick explains, "let me state unequivocally that I believe how a woman dresses (and behaves in that dress) tells a man what's on her mind." That said, he informs readers that his defence work has brought him into contact with "cases where those who have been dressed in a perfectly conventional way were still victims of this heinous crime." Key word: still. The way a woman dresses, Nick concludes, "can victimise men"."
So he is basically saying men can't help themselves, which IMO men should find highly offensive. What a fucking twat.
