As Liz said, what was the appeal of Archer anyway. Now his appeal is dead and burried whats the betting he finds God, or is diagnosed with some 'imcurable disease ' which he, upon release from Prison he miraculasly recovers from.

These seem to be the standad way out of the jail for White Collar Criminals.

BTW, as there seems to be some thread drift on this I remind catters of the words of the late Herbert Morrison, Lord Morrison of Lambeth, a former British Home Secretary, who had to make the decisions on reprieves and pardons. " If I had the choice on capital punishment, I would retain it for one crime, and one crime only, that of Coruption in Public Office".

I agree with him on that.
