DishThe good thing about the legal profession is that mistakes are made, papers aren't read and in Collins J's case it was a sunny day. I learned recently that one cannot criticize a judge. This was news to me. Nevertheless, I accept that. As claimants, we have to bow down to wrong facts, wrong analysis and a wrong judgment. You can't say - "hey Judgie my man, you have got it all tits up". Even when judges are wrong they are apparently right.
Those who have Collins J presiding should understand that he edited the rules of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. Moreover, he never declares the fact that his brother is a Psychiatrist at the Priory Clinic. Perhaps these things don't need to be declared but at least it is online for anyone who requires it. Lots of parties including the GMC have made representations of conflicts but have been unsuccessful.
Anyway, that's Collins J for you. Then again, his own family is rather interesting because his brother Dr Mark Collins who is a Consultant Psychiatrist at the Priory was found in a compromising position at Clapham Common. No one talks about all this we are all supposed to keep quiet about these antics. Collins did a President Clinton. Sadly, the lady in question did not have a fridge.
Anyway, I found this sentence by the GMC great fun "You let your head be turned by a patient whom you found to be pretty, articulate and intelligent". So, Mark had met his patient for some discreet one to one sessions in Clapham Common but it wasn't professional misconduct. In my case, "linking" to a public document could potentially be misconduct :).
The GMC went onto say in Mark Collins case
"The Committee regard the threshold for a finding of serious professional misconduct a high one which would normally require them to take some action on your registration"
Perhaps we are just normal mortals who do not deserve to live or walk on the same streets as these esteemed high powered legal beagles. After all, they uphold the law and uphold the integrity in the land. In my view, first they ought to clean up their profession with some good Fairy Liquid. Perhaps they ought to hire "Chilli Hotstuff" Rosalene Driza who has some good cleaning skills.
My skirmishes with the legal profession are legendary. In 2004, I objected to paying my legal team a large wad of £35K and then was forced to do a lot of the work myself - including making the folders for the court. I have come across rude clerks, rude barristers, some excellent judges and some completely odd ones. Overall, life was much better without any contact with the legal profession.
Then again, I should say that a lot of barristers are fabulously handsome. and I have this weakness for handsome men. This weakness was created by the GMC. The stress of litigating against them, facing their absurd complaints forced me to a few addictions - handsome men and chocolate. When I get stressed, I go into default mode - chocolate then my observatory of good looking men. And this is where my weak squint starts to recur.
Actually, looks are the only thing many barristers have going for them. I have previously spoken of my hopes of meeting the GMC's barrister Mark Shaw QC. When he turned up, he was a crumpled little being with a twisted wig and a stooped gait. I told my friend " Geez, its Rumplestilkin". Apart from losing my case to him, what was more disappointing was the fact that he was no sexpot. I had hoped that the gold class gobbler of doctors subscription fees would be rather more handsome. I was very disappointed at the GMC's failure to provide anyone remotely handsome or charming. The GMC has no class and are incapable of regulating and incapable of picking handsome debonair barristers.
My attentions swiftly moved from my case to a different case because other barristers clearly have more in terms of looks. We just can't waste time on Mark Shaw QC. His stooped gait is worsening with time. Soon he won't be able to stand up straight.
One such sexpot is Roger Stewart QC. The Times has a piece on him but it shows his bald head. OK these things aren't a real disaster. I rang Helen Bright up one night and told her all about this dishy barrister. I was fizzing with excitement. Helen Bright was only bothered about the legals and the case that was ongoing and subsequently wrote about it. I on the other hand was totally distracted by Roger. I immediately saved the above picture as my screensaver. I have developed one with a number of barristers.
Yes, girls, he may be sued for £34 million but you can see why his clerk trapped him in her fishnet tights. We have to thank Dr Aisha Bijlani for introducing us shy retiring women to the likes of Roger Stewart QC. This is what the case is all about so here it is......
A senior barrister and part-time judge denied yesterday that his affair with a senior clerk was a “smouldering fire” that led him to overlook a “racist culture” at his chambers.
Roger Stewart, QC, is one of three heads of chambers at 4 New Square being sued for tens of millions of pounds by Aisha Bijlani, an Indian-born barrister.
Dr Bijlani alleges that clerks at the firm were racist, failed to give her work and did not collect her fees, costing her millions in lost income.
They were not held accountable because Mr Stewart was having an affair with one of them, Dr Bijlani claims.
Mr Stewart admitted an affair with the senior clerk at the chambers, Lizzy Wiseman, but said that he had always been “objective” about her.
Ms Wiseman is also being sued, along with Justin Fenwick, QC, with whom she also had an affair, and John Powell, QC.
At the Central London Employment Tribunal yesterday Althea Brown, QC, for Dr Bijlani, said: “Out of the three heads of chambers [Ms Wiseman] worked with, she had personal relationships with two of them.
Bed Hopping Stick Insect The world has lots of women. Most women are buxom wenches. Why on earth would Roger pick such a stick insect? This is what I really don't understand. He is clearly a man of power who can have any woman on the planet? Why Ms Wiseman? He may be blindly in love with her but I often wonder whether she will just leave him as she dropped previous relationships. Maybe Roger likes the security and no doubt feels protective over her - a bit like a gladiator. For me, I struggle with day to day life just by trying to arrange every day things. How do these busy top legal minds have time for affairs?
This is what Roger told the Times
"Mr Stewart added: “I believe I’ve always been objective about Ms Wiseman. The relationship started in July 2008. It did not start from some smouldering fire that had been going on for years beforehand.“There was absolutely nothing that occurred between me and Miss Wiseman before July 2008 which I would not have been happy for my wife to know everything about.”
Wife???? Anyway, the Daily Mail has better details on this. It is such an irony to have the Christian name like Roger. My God, the GMC will tell me to wash my mouth out with fairy liquid for using such terms to describe upstanding member of the legal profession. Upstanding of course being the operative word. All rise me Lud was probably the order of the day for Ms Wiseman. Well, Dr Bijlani has indeed ensured that all the chambers dirty Laundry is strewn around the world. At least we can all swoon over Roger Stewart like a gaggle of teenage girls.
As I told Doctors4Justice, if Roger would like to do some pro bono work for my whistleblowing case - in exchange I am happy to wear my wonderbra, offer him chocolate and have intelligent discussions with him about the law. I have to draw the line somewhere with these barristers because once you start discussing the law, it becomes very soporific and you fall asleep. That's been my experience anyway. I normally last about 15 minutes at conference before I have to go out to the Womens Toilets and wake myself up by splashing water all over my face. I have wondered whether barristers often have this difficulty with women. Perhaps that is why Roger ended up with his sack experienced clerk. Perhaps she doesn't fall asleep like the rest of us intelligent buxom women. Money and power is a great aphrodisiac and I hope Roger isn't disappointed by the pedigree he has opted for. This love puppy is heading for a crash at some point in the future.
Of course, Sexpot Stewart isn't the only one who can seduce with a cloak and wig. We must never forget the wonderful story of Lord Goldsmith. Unlike Dr Bijlani, this asian barrister banged the Attorney General and was made a QC in record time. The article stated
"Divorced mother of two Mrs Hollis, who is nearly ten years younger than 57-year-old Lord Goldsmith, was educated at Cheltenham Ladies College. She became Britain's first Asian QC in 2002 when she was made a silk' by Lord Goldsmith's Cabinet colleague and friend, Lord Chancellor Lord Falconer"
Amazing! We all wonder where the Bar Standards Board is when all this is happening. I keep forgetting, they hardly prosecute QCs.
Last but not least is the tale of Chilli Hot Stuff. This is my all time favourite legal sex tale. Naughty Judge Khan picked the wrong Brazillian Cleaner and found how hot she really was when he got burnt to a cinder. The Independent had the best write up and said
"Two immigration judges and their illegal immigrant cleaner became involved in a love triangle that ended in allegations of blackmail, drug taking, sex videos, assassination allegations - and broken china.
Yesterday the soap opera of Court 13 came to a dramatic climax when Roselane Driza was convicted of theft and of blackmailing a female judge. Driza was cleared of a second count relating to another judge, Mohammed Ilyas Khan, with whom both she and her female victim had been lovers.
The 37-year-old Brazilian was also convicted of stealing two home-made sex videos from Mr Khan, one of which, Driza claimed in court, show the female judge apparently snorting cocaine"
And that is just a brief summary of the legal indiscretions in this profession that apparently maintains integrity of the United Kingdom :). Roger Stewart QC is a fine upstanding gentleman in more ways than one :) :) :)> after all he is in a profession where size does matter. I meant wig size for god sake :) :)!

Sounds like fun, how do you get into this type of work, my jobs pretty mundane.
P.S. I have scruples and integrity could this get in the way?
M.C.
There are a lot more tales that have yet to be wagged!
The power of Sex Love and Videotapes, in the era of modern quangocracy, knows no bounds!
A very revealing portrait of legal life, although I think you have been too generous with praise at various points throughout ;O)
The legal industry is corrupt. Ironically, we would probably stand a much better chance of getting justice without it.
I know a few people who have had a brush with the legal profession (sic) and in all the cases I personally know of, the judges have been pompous twits with no regard for conducting fair hearings, let alone justice.
I was once acting as a litigant in person for a friend's case. (Mckenzie friend).
The case was pretty clear cut and the acts complained of were all backed up fully by evidence, although some of the content was technical and outside the understanding of a simple judge trained in law (IMO law is a soft subject, no idea why it is considered to be a high status profession. Probably why they have such a complex about lay representatives).
The judge was extremely biased. The other side were represented by a prominent barrister, but in spite of this the barrister received help throughout. As a lay person I would have expected a similar courtesy, but I received no such thing.
The judge actually rolled his eyes when the evidence was being explained. He picked up on a rubbish point made by the barrister, that had no bearing on the case, and started a line of interrogation on that subject. Ridiculous.
The legal system is a complete joke along with all the snakes who opt to work in it.
p.s. Apologies to any people who went into the legal profession for the right reasons, i.e. to promote fairness and justice. My guess is there aren't many of these about. The good guys (tiny minority?) are probably cast out as soon as their failure to exploit the misery of unwitting victims, with extortionate (no value for money) fees, is noticed.
Leeches.
Rant over.
