As the issue of compensation for miscarriages of justice is rightly in the news, it’s timely to note that in 2014, the government changed the law to make it all but impossible for people wrongly convicted and imprisoned to claim compensation.

Given the way your husband was so shabbily treated by the British spooks, I hope you have more success in obtaining an appropriate security clearance from the Australian intelligence agencies.

The lack of time offered to stakeholders and parliamentarians to consider the proposals indicate an astonishing level of contempt for the traditional consultative process.

Let’s wait until the details are published rather than rush to condem such proposals.

First memory of going to the theatre? Alan Howard as the RSC's Prince Hal in Henry IV pt II & Ben Kingsley's Hamlet in Stratford upon Avon. First West End Theatre? Jesus Christ Superstar at the Palace. Every child must make this memory. #TheatreForEveryChild

Browsing through the list of accredited trainers for IAPP certifications, I was bemused to see this outfit which calls itself Privacy Matters. They should not be confused with the great Pat Walshe, whose @PrivacyMatters tweets have educated & entertained us for many years.

This ‘new investigation’ probably adds little to the list of concerns that @PrivacyMatters has been raising with opinion formers within the European Parliament during the last 19 years

I'm thinking of starting a new business - selling rarely used vintage data protection clothing - like these old jackets!

Nothing to be concerned about here. It’s just the end of a long turf war where the Home Office’s commissioner has lost out. The Home Office isn’t having much luck on any front these days.
