Spending a Decade Explaining Lawfare is a Public Service
Filed under: The public and our politicians need to know
wo years ago I said I’d likely spend the next 5 years writing about lawfare. Earlier this year I corrected myself and said a decade or more.
I meant it when I said it the first time, it’s just that there’s more to cover and more material becomes available than I can cover (or things happen more quickly than I can properly cover them).
Sometimes I need to stop and do an “outline”, then assess how long it’ll take to cover it all thoroughly enough.
The order of the coverage matters a lot.
Someone has asked me to “move on” (with “my life”), but he is just projecting. Merely explaining how lawfare works in the UK (it’s bigger than just one firm) is prerequisite for change and I’m in a position to explain what happened.
Transparency is not negotiable.
