The law applies to everyone equally. What does not apply equally to everybody is access to the very best, most expensive legal advice. What does not apply equally to everybody is the obsequious and indulgent way we behave towards people of the establishment, whether they be churchmen, politicians or telly celebrities.


That, unfortunately, works both ways.
Would so much police time & money have been spent investigating Jimmy Savile, Edward Heath & Cliff Richard if they had not been celebrities/politicians? Especially as two of them are not here to face any possibility of prosecution, or of defending themselves.
