Season’s Greetings to readers, injustice campaigners, and victims of injustice in Scotland & around the world

Lewis Chess Christmas 2Season’s Greetings from Diary of Injustice in Scotland. EARLIER this year, Scottish judge & Deputy President of the UK’s Supreme Court Lord Hope described Scotland's justice system as containing “a corrosive anti-English sentiment” adding that this “sentiment can be a real obstacle to progress”. Scotland’s justice system is exactly that, and much worse besides. Whether the case relate to criminal or civil law, there is ample evidence in the opinions, rulings, attitudes & activities of more than a few members of the Scottish judiciary to show that Scotland’s “Victorian” justice system and its courts serve themselves and the interests of vested interests before they serve justice.

Scotland’s courts have become corrosive, vindictive, people-hating places which regularly stamp upon anyone whose interests collide with vested interests of the professions, big business & the establishment. In short, ‘justice’ in Scotland is bought & paid for, long before you, the public, the litigant, even the party litigant, ever get a look-in.

As another year draws to a close on reporting the ins & outs and ups & downs of the Scots legal world, a year in which some will find themselves struggling against a bleak midwinter of injustice brought upon them by a justice system we are taught will protect us all, I’d like to wish all my readers, in Scotland & around the world, my colleagues in the media, all victims of injustice, all those who tirelessly fight against injustice or fight for consumer rights, & those inside the Scots legal profession I personally know who bravely serve their clients in the interests of justice rather than in the interests of others, Season’s Greetings, a Merry Christmas, and good luck for the New Year, 2012.

Perfect summation of a rotten backward banana republic justice system that is Scotland.Little wonder our politicians are crawling off to big companies trying to get them to litigate here.

Have a good Christmas Peter and all your readers.For heaven's sake everyone try and stop at least one person getting ripped off by a lawyer in 2012!

What is the definition of a lawyer: a lying cowardly scum bag.

What will future dictionaries say about the word lawyer: An extinct profession because of past atrocities comprising mainly of robbing the public deeming them unfit for purpose.

It is happening right now and it has only just begun.

Hundreds at least and you can be assured Jane Irvine and the SLCC will be doing nothing to stop it from happening next year and every year!

What isnt reported is the fact certain law firms were too happy to be used to shut up the families of victims yet to be revealed.

Hope you do some digging on this one and others connected to it and scum like HIM

Clients get hit all the time with phoney bills from lawyers so it'll be a lot worse now with them having to find the money from anywhere to fund their lifestyles.Fraud must be going through the roof to pay for their Christmases etc

OFFICES ARE THE PROBLEM said...

Scotland’s courts have become corrosive, vindictive, people-hating places which regularly stamp upon anyone whose interests collide with vested interests of the professions, big business & the establishment. (YES THINK OF THEM AS OFFICES, THE SHERIFF IN THE OFFICE IS LIKE THE HOUSING MANAGER IN A COUNCIL. In short, ‘justice’ (PERFECT PETER YES LAWYERS BEND FOR THEIR FRIENDS WITH THE MONEY AND ACT HONEST (THAT IS A JOKE) in Scotland is bought & paid for, long before you, the public, the litigant, even the party litigant, ever get a look-in.

LOOK IN, YES LIKE A SYSTEM OF OFFICES LIKE THE SLCC OR LAW SOCIETY. GOD'S LAW THOSE IN OFFICES LOOK AFTER COLLEAGUES, ONE IS CORRUPT AND THE REST COVER YPO FOR THEM. WHERE THERE IS A LOCAL AUTHORITY OFFICE, INSURANCE COMPANY OFFICE, ANY KIND OF OFFICE, OUTCOMES ARE ENGINEERED TO PROTECT THE PEOPLE WITHIN THE OFFICE.

OFFICES AND THEIR LEGAL EQUIVALENT ARE THE MODERN REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM OF INJUSTICE, SHE SPLIIS OUT INJUSTICE WITH NO RESPITE FOR THE INNOCENT, PEOPLE LEFT WITHOUT RIGHTS BECAUSE THE INSIDERS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE OUTSIDERS.

From Solicitors From Hell

Law Society of Scotland
26 Drumsheugh Gardens
Edinburgh EH3 7YR
Scotland


All Lawyers (Protect your children, they will grow up and need a lawyer).


Do not trust the Law Society of Scotland. They run a Master Policy (underwritten by Marsh UK Royal Sun Alliance) which is meant to compensate victims of crooked lawyers. One campaigner has highlighted client suicides where the Society sent a ruined farmer to lawyers to sue his original lawyer.

The farmer got nowhere because the lawyers he was sent to represented the Legal Defence Union there to protect Master Policy compensation payouts. The farmer killed himself with a shotgun.

The Law Society deals with complaints in the Private Professional Realm. They do not have public courts like other citizens. Never trust a lawyer or their union.

Is there a message in the Lewis Chessman?
Would he make a better regulator of crooked lawyers do you think?

Peter.Lawyers and their friends must hate your guts but you are an incredible asset to Scotland.Long live the power of free speech and those who stand up to the scum who enslave us with unjust laws benefiting themselves!

Hi Peter, one of your earlier articles which demonstrates why Tugendhat is wrong to try and close web sites, although his ruling is preposterous in a democracy.

"A member of the public goes to a reporter, giving them evidence they were ripped off by a crooked lawyer - had their money stolen, lost their house, lost their business , etc ... and went through the works - made a complaint to the Law Society of Scotland & got nowhere, made a complaint to the Scottish Legal Services Ombudsman and got nowhere, tried to get a lawyer to sue a lawyer and got nowhere, wrote to their MSP & MP & got nowhere.

The reporter then writes the story up, identifying the crooked lawyer & legal firm, identifying the Law Society of Scotland & the rest for doing nothing - and telling how this person went through years of torment, lost everything they had, lost even their family, friends, lost absolutely e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g, while, the crooked lawyer happily went on being crooked to other clients & nothing was done.

How do you think the newspaper's lawyers would react to that one when it came across their desk ?

Right ! The newspaper's lawyers call the Law Society of Scotland - and say something like "Hello Drumsheugh Gardens, we have a problem ...."

Guess what happens next ?

The reporter who wrote the story gets a call from, the Law Society of Scotland ... and if they are extremely lucky, they will get a call from Douglas Mill himself - to ask how strong they are going with the story ... a conversation ensues where the Law Society then make the reporter well aware of their position as regulator of the legal profession, with many tentacles which may just snag an errant reporter who might be tempted to cover this or other similar stories. The News Editor also gets a similar call, and the papers lawyers are told to advise against publication.

Result ? ... The story invariably gets killed .. so no publication and no bad publicity for the legal profession. Hooray for Law Society censorship ! Another cover up achieved a-okay" !

How right you are Peter, all the best.

I have been tucked up three times by solicitors and now when I deal with lawyers in my businesses I shaft them silly and will continue to do so. I robbed my money back from you lot years ago. Isn't life great take a leaf from my book and do everyone of these bastards when you can. What a shame you know nothing about my field and I look forward to another New Year of taking the piss. Did I mention my business colleagues do the same. merry christmas to all who deserve it.
