So, The Dear Leader and Shaven-headed Sidekick have given up on the burden of proof of the criminal law...

The Al Capone Bill (yes, it's been at least a week since a Serious Crime Bill was in the works) is positing that the necessity of proof is just a fiddly little thing that plain gets in the way when you're trying to get those Nasty Mr Bigs.

Oh yes, we're reducing the burden of proof in Criminal matters to that of Civil cases because it's easier that way.

Insert your own A-levels joke here...

About This Site

Martin Burns

This is my site - here to tell friends, colleagues, clients and suppliers a bit about me and what I do.

The short version is that I work for IBM Global Business Services, project managing CRM initiatives for large clients.

I've worked for clients in the CPG and Government sectors, but I focus on the financial services sector.

In my Copious Spare Time™, I take photos, look after my youngsters, Morgan, Ruaridh and Orla and help Lucy run her Cloth Nappy Business.

For the longer version, well you'll have to email me, but while you're here, take a look at my Blog, read some of my articles, or take a look at my photos.
