It is called R v Brown and others. A group of consenting adults was caught (don't know how) doing various violent things to each others private parts. They had a password, so that they could yell out in pain, but the activity would carry on, but if they yelled the password it would stop. Various people in the party were charged with assault type charges (to be fair, not sure if anyone was actually charged with torture). The question up for consideration was whether a person can legally consent to that kind of assault - if they could it wouldn't be an assault. It was found that they could, but the poor chaps in question were still convicted - of offending public morals. Not sure what that adds to the debate really but when studing the case I had a jolly good chuckle at reading various barristers terribly serious submissions to the court of appeal about the true nature of nailing genitals to a plank.....

Convicted drug-dealers were they, or were the police just doing a raid?


Either way it's wrong but if they aren't even convicted and are just suspects that makes it worse x 10. Come on Jimmy even you know the police are human and make as many mistakes as the rest of us. They have forced their way into my flat at 3am in the morning and I don't really fancy being tortured onlyto be told it was a mistaken identity


Also, drug dealers may be a blight on society but without them a large number of forumites wouldn't function.... that doesn't make it right of course. Just saying

Yes Sean the Police do make mistakes, and the guys who were nicked in the raid may well of been innocent on this occasion and at the time they were allegedly tortured they were indeed only suspects. But you can bet your bottom dollar that they probably were drug dealers with previous convictions. And ok, so they may have served some negligible amount of time in the clink for those crimes. But you've got to admit, it puts a smile on your face to read the blighters suffered a bit on this occasion.

"If they didn't do this they did something similar".


I'm sure that causes some kind of facial expression but it isn't a smile.

You probably aren't aware of it right now Jimmy but Sean is flexing and crunching his knuckles in preparation for his answer and will launch into it with all the passion and determination of a pianist. I can see him now, eye's closed, rolling his head from shoulder to shoulder............and he begins.

    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
