How welcome it was last Friday to read the comments made by returning Magistrate Carol Peralta.

Thank God for the likes of this man to speak out about the mess the courts are in.

Recently, I too had to go to court and could see the disorganisation and chaos there. This ranged from trying to enter the building to fighting my way to the courtroom itself, where I was then subjected to a slapstick comedy of the proceedings, albeit for some this happened to be a very upsetting experience.

After being involved with the UK legal system, I found it a circus and a money-spinning exercise on a daily basis. Let us hope and pray that things can only get better.
