To Suzanne. It shouldn't happen in the UK either! Sharpley appears before a court or tribunal in one area and gets a knuckle rapping and a "telling off" and is able, next day figuratively speaking, to go to another court and make hell for a folkie musician. There is nothing "joined up" in the UK legal system and that is why Sharpley (as Bulmers bag carrier) is able to appear in courts as if nothing has happened to him. It must surely have come to the stage where a disgraced lawyer is required to disclose his status to the court particularly where he uses his former skills in an attempt to damage others. Naive perhaps but the deficiencies in the UK legal system have enabled Bulmer and Sharpley to scythe through all channels of decent business behaviour. If you think I'm wrong, simply refer to nearly all of their former business and music acquaintances - it's unlikely that a good word will be heard in their favour.
