"Summary Justice" soars....


Everyone has the right to a fair trial, right?

You can't end up with a criminal record without being found guilty in a court of law, right?

Wrong! Last year 207,000 fixed penalty fines were issued for a variety of offences including public disorder.

Is this swift and effective justice or a licence for abuse of power?

Good article on this in The Times here. Have a read! Comments please...
