Writing boll0cks about the mindset of someone you do not know, must be the easiest job in the world.
Did you know, everytime Ann Widdecombe is mentioned in a newspaper, it is sent to her at a cost of £1 a time by a clippings service. nice for her scrapbook. Oh, and the £9000 it has cost so far, she has claimed on expenses. What do we feel about the morality of that?

Actually, Geezer, lazy armchair punditry is a fairly familiar bugbear of mine, as I make clear on AB all the time.
Clueless observers genuinely beliveing they've had eureka-style brainwaves on geophysics, military strategy, individual criminal trials, or medical science - that those directly involved have somehow overlooked.
It's a bit arrogant. And dim.

I love this woman her ego is gigantic!
"PSYCHIATRISTS say they are surprised.....They must have a funny grasp of psychology"
Not like MP's who are well renowned for being experts in the field eh Ann?
Next week Ann Widdecome drops into a Brain surgery operation and points out where they're going wrong!
I'm not surprised people like her - she's flattering you.
She's saying "you know all these experts with their book learning they get it all wrong whereas normal people like you and I with our common sense are so much more in touch with reality"
She's leaning out of the paper and telling you how you and her are so much cleverer
Who's going to argue with that?

Personally I think that she said it well and at least it made me think. I hadn't really thought much of theirs lives from then until now. Regardless whether he should have been kept in for life, rehabilitated or hung. His life in between couldn't have been easy. That's the point I think Ann was making.
It was, but that raises another question.
Was it correct that a 10 year old should have been prosecuted in this way as an adult.
He was only just over the age of criminal responsibility for goodness sake.
His name and picture publicised.
This crime provoked an understandable public outcry and the government at the time caved in to show how tough it was. In doing so they really wrecked his chances for rehabilitation

What choice did they have at the time? People in the area new who they were....it would have come out anyway.
I do agree that had they not have to change every single thing about their past, even down to losing their scouse accents....and living with the fear of slipping up at some time. It might have worked better.
But what they done, the torture they inflicted.....It couldn't go unreported.
