Oh, I missed out an ‘and the Parole Act’ in there. Shame on me.

I found it very illuminating a few weeks ago when looking at pleas in mitigation and submissions on sentencing (will be a lawyer in a few weeks, you see) that one would be best advised to point out to a judge the ACTUAL effect of sentencing, when considered in light of the Sentencing Act. But then, to me the actual sentence given should be the sentence served. Otherwise fools are being made of us all.

Isn’t the final comment rather unfair on the Maze at Hampton Court Palace? After all it does what it was designed to do and has been the source of much harmless entertainment for three hundred years. None of the above can be said of Section 86.
