But I was asking which owners donated to the conservatives, not who just who owned them.

And the bloke who failed to prosecute Jimmy Saville, and in my opinion started the trend of bullying people through the magistrates court to get them to plead guilty before getting to crown court.

I would like to find out how many cases get abandoned by the prosecution at crown court due to lack of evidence or due to the fact that they have evidence that makes a conviction unlikely.

Keir Starmer was not told about dropping of Jimmy Savile case, say sources

Keir Starmer was not informed when an investigator at the Crown Prosecution Service decided to drop a case against Jimmy Savile, sources have told the Guardian, despite the fact he led the institution at the time.

The Labour leader was unaware that a prosecutor had closed the case into the notorious child sexual abuser in 2009, nearly a year after he took over as director of public prosecutions (DPP).

He later reviewed the case in 2012 and came very close to rubber-stamping the original decision not to prosecute, before deciding at the last minute to commission his chief legal adviser, Alison Levitt, to conduct a formal inquiry.

Nazir Afzal, a former prosecutor at the CPS, told the Guardian: “Pretty much the first time I’ve seen him angry was when he commissioned the Levitt report.

He was angry because he did not know. He wondered why the escalation process did not permit the case to be referred up to his office.”

if only there was a global system of inter-connected computers, that we could all use, to instantly access and search the totality of uploaded human knowledge and information.

He was in charge his responsibility to make sure he's informed, but also the justice secretary at the time was ultimately responsible too, because at the end of the day, the DPP&CPS are quangos.

something like 100million people are 'displaced' (according to the United Nations commissioner for refugees), roughly half of those people don't even leave their own country.

Of those that do leave, most stop in a neighbouring country. Only a small fraction make it to Britain - more choosing to stop in France/Germany/etc.

 

We have an obligation to help - this is a global phenomenon.

 

an application-and-processing centre in France (for example) would help reduce the number of boat crossings, but it wouldn't make much money for hotel-owning conservative party donors.

 

We do fulfill our obligation the legal way.

Here we are talking about thousands of people in no danger where they are now.
