Citizen smith at 15.10 - Bravo. I too am like robin hood. I have a caseload of clients who cant afford to pay yet i still help. I struggle to pay my own way and look after myself and my family and repeatedly say - this is the last time i will do this, i mean it this time, okay one exception but its the last one....and the cycle continues. I will phone around and try shelter if its a housing case or some other charity.

I wish for my robin hood days to be over soon and wish i never got into this blasted profession. I for one do not nor have ever cared about titles and would be happy being a bin man if it covered my bills!

I do not think wholesale justice reform will happen in our lifetime, and if anything 'popup' style of courts will take over, the way in most sci fi films a robot or automated machine collars you for swearing and 'scans' you and you must cough up there and then or face being vortexed away into cyberprison.

What the judge did is commendable but out of line with the powers that be and will swiftly be forgotten about and regression to the mean will arise once again.
