Whether that definition is correct or not, your application of the term to describe posters is flawed and misguided.

England on course for a record number of ducks in an Ashes series; 22 is the current record, so far this time around we have 8 in 2 and a half innings.

Decrepit

BBC report says 5 minutes 33 seconds.

There is a concept, often told to children, that when a pet dies it crosses a Rainbow Bridge to a land of sunshine snd open fields, and when a rainbow shows in the sky you can say hello to your deceased pets. In Reno, Nevada, a local Girl Scout group painted a wooden bridge in a public park in rainbow colours, so that people could stand in the middle of the bridge to speak to their pets. Some moron vandalised the bridge as a protest against it's symbolic support for the LGBTQ community.

Given the OBR's pre-budget cock up, some might be inclined to retort " He would say that, wouldn't he".

The vast majority of cases in the CJS never get near a Court or jury.

Nobody denies the existence of the "far right". People take issue with how readily you apply the epiphet to those who disagree with you.

What would Plato make of someone who uses a computer to summarise his works ?

GOOGLE AI's response to "Can I trust ChatGPT"; "You can trust ChatGPT as a tool for brainstorming and getting general information, but not as a definitive source for critical facts, professional advice, or sensitive data. Its responses can contain "hallucinations" (false information), inaccuracies, and biases, and it can misinterpret data or generate flawed code. Therefore, always critically evaluate its outputs and verify information with reliable sources, especially for topics like legal, financial, or medical matters. " Also, read this... https://www.deficambridge.org/should-we-trust-chatgpt/ It is a tool; it can provide useful summaries and collations of information, but can also come up with incorrect assumptions, and even create totally fictitious sources. It should never be relied on in isolation, or as being definitively trustworthy. As I said, if you use AI as a fount of wisdom, you are a fool. Edit; Even ChatGPT admits it is fallible; "That's a good question! Trust is important when using any technology. While I strive to provide accurate, helpful, and unbiased information, it's important to keep in mind that: I’m not infallible – I rely on the data I was trained on, which means sometimes I might not have the most up-to-date info or might make mistakes."

If there are shortages of Judges Barristers, and Magistrates, and a lack of resource within the CPS how do the changes help ?

You don't have to. The prosecution have to prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, that you are guilty.

ChatGPT is a series of algorithms and sequences of computer coding, it is not 'intelligence'. Like all such AI ChatBots it is prone to mistakes, misreadings, and sometimes the generation of total random bullshit. Anybody who uses such facilities as a fount of wisdom is a fool..

No. There are degrees of self-interest. No politician is successful and totally free of emcumbrance, even if it's just free tickets to the footy. Trump, however, takes milking his position to levels rarely seen outside dictatorships.

Monopoly

No.

AMEN

This might be a surprise to some but.......... I AM A "LEFTIE". Suck it up.

If they are putting more workload onto the volunteer Magistrates, will they be willing to give additional time ?

But if, as reported, there is a shortage of Barristers and Judges, and a backlog within the CPS due to staff overload as it processes case files, how will Lammey's reforms help ?

FPTP has been bad enough with the traditional 3 party split, with 4 it is totally unpredictable.

Perhaps the Legal system needs reform, but this won't solve the problem. There is insufficient funding, the building infrastructure is crumbling, there is a lack of capacity within the system, and the prisons are at breaking point. This would only be a solution if the problem was a lack of jurors.

As if that bothers our recruitment team.
