Slater & Gordon’s annus horribilis.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on January 31, 2016

Long ago, there was a country club with a golf course called ‘Quindell’. A man called Rob Terry ran it, despite his previous company, Innovation Group, apparently vanishing up its own backside – leaving him some £12 million to

Operation Notarise.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on January 28, 2016

October 2014 – and as ‘many as 20,000 to 30,000‘ potential sex offenders, or vile perverts in tabloidese, had been identified. There was outrage that all those on the list provided by the National Crime Agency hadn’t been

The Taming of the Screw?

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on January 26, 2016

Once upon a time, children, in this septic isle, we used to slope off to Sunday School in order to learn the rules of moral transgression. Moral authority was exclusively the preserve of the Church, who denounced sinners

The Cambridge Companion to the Qur’an…

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on November 14, 2015

Ms Raccoon has had her nose in this book all week-end. As with the bible, one can play pick n’ mix’ to one’s heart content. I hadn’t quite appreciated why it was

The Existentialist Mr ‘Blacker Does Not Exist’

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on November 5, 2015

However – he did grandly announce that he did not exist, from his position of principled non-existence. Jean-Paul Sartre would have been proud of him.

Predictive Policing and ‘Allegator’ Algorithms.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 1, 2015

Traditional Policing has always paid attention to crime ‘hot spots’. Keeping an eye on the ATM machine where several muggings have occurred over the previous few weeks; Making a regular ‘drive by’ a park where a rapist

Class and the Common Girl.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on September 23, 2015

Reading one of Moor Larkin’s excellent posts the other night, an excerpt from the Pollard report caught my eye. I had seen it before, but in isolation; now I was reading it again in conjunction with

Fat Bottomed Girls and Boozy Memories.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on September 13, 2015

Academics never fail to amaze me with their innovative methods of acquiring grants to study yet another obscure subject. I well remember writing a post on the obscene size of the grant obtained by some American academics

Proctor Gambles on Fairy Transparency.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on August 25, 2015

Harvey Proctor has unsheathed his ‘sword of truth’ and come out fighting; unwilling to cower in the closet any longer whilst rumours swirl around the Internet.

Taking the lectern in the Marlborough Suite, he issued a

Time to revisit Gillick?

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on August 17, 2015

Medieval schoolgirls had to hunt their own contraceptives…

Way back in the mists of time, when the Labour party was merely middle aged, Jeremy Corbyn was still wearing short trousers, and no one knew that veering to

Time Gentlemen, Please!

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on August 9, 2015

Years ago, I found a small brass object hidden at the back of the drawer in a desk I had bought at auction. It sits on my windowsill to this day; partly testament to the years it took

What about the Boyos?

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on August 4, 2015

Amnesty International is as right-on, bleeding heart, liberal as it comes. Since 1961, when it was launched hand-in-glove with the caring souls at the Guardian, it has redefined colonialism by imposing the views of the Islington crowd on

Tag-Tag-Tagging Along.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on July 6, 2015

The Twilight World, that chamber of horrors complete with trick mirrors distorting reality, and ghostly shrieks from memories past, that some unfortunate individuals are forced to dwell in towards the end of their days.

Janner's Janissaries.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on April 20, 2015

Lord Greville Janner’s loyal family and supporters are fighting a futile battle to preserve his reputation in the face of the disingenuous statements from both the CPSÂ and the Leicestershire Police.

The CPS laid emphasis on the

The Sliding Scale of Justice.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on April 13, 2015

Like Premiership footballers, or Formula One racing drivers, successful solicitors and barristers aren’t enamoured with the idea of working for minimum wages. The best charge more.

As a society, we ensured that the poorest and most vulnerable

Beating the Tattoo.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

A perfect spring day yesterday; blossom fighting its way through the bark of the apple trees, not a cloud in the sky – just the day to take the dog for a walk on the beach.

Even Grimmer Fairy Tales.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

Are you sitting comfortably? Then I’ll begin.

Grim Fairy Tales…The Savile Allegations.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on March 5, 2015

I was struck by the number of people – allegators – in the past series of Savile reports, who had contacted Yewtree merely out of a wish to validate other reports of abuse.

The Buried Truth? – More Savile allegations.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on March 4, 2015

Another day and another half dozen ‘truly awful, dreadful’ examples of the savage abuse Savile allegedly inflicted on vulnerable children in Children’s Homes. Henshaw’s School for the Blind – the media version.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on March 3, 2015

And we’re off and running again, searching for that elusive item, a genuine example of ‘truly awful, dreadful child abuse’ as reported to Operation Yewtree, amongst the additional 20 children’s homes:

Where's the Beef, Mum? More Savile 'Revelations'.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on February 27, 2015

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on February 16, 2015

Old Lags and Retrograde Justice.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on February 12, 2015
