Umm, how does this make the British justice system better than US?

This terrifies me on so many different levels. These fools in their greed are
breaking the social contract of justice. It can only end in tears.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

And when the UK's public prosecutors decided not to press charges
against Vickerman at all, FACT initiated a criminal prosecution on its own dime.
Individuals and (I presume, companies) have long had the right in
the UK to pursue criminal prosecutions. This right has been used very rarely.
However, the crown has the right to intervene and take over the prosecution,
often followed by the case being dropped by the crown. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
