Jo Private Eye has for years called the SFO the Serious Farce Office.

From The Law Society Gazette a year ago:

News focus: Serious Farce? Where now for the SFO and Lisa Osofsky

‘Mistakes, misjudgements’, disclosure failures and a looming jobs cull. The future appears bleak for the Serious Fraud Office and its embattled director Lisa Osofsky

From the FT a year ago:

The UK won’t take fraud seriously until we take the SFO seriously

Reports last week stopped short of condemning the agency but big changes are needed

... The next director of the SFO must be someone who commands the confidence of London’s legal industry. Osofsky, despite being a dual-qualified US lawyer and UK barrister, has been dismissed by critics as more a compliance officer than prosecutor. The SFO is meant to be the UK’s most prestigious prosecutorial agency. Peers long for someone to put fear into defendants once again (and send them scrambling for defence lawyers).

Yet it is hard to see that happening so long as the SFO remains under-resourced. ...
JK2006 Gives up his ambitions to head up the Met, ex Surrey boss who suffered when the case against me collapsed in an earthquake of incompetence and breaches of discipline, leaving three dead men in its wake (not me), scuttled off to the Met before he could face disciplinary action at Surrey, tried to run for Commissioner, got soundly beaten by Rowley (another ex Surrey boss - the training force for police survivors) and has now left the police, getting a lucrative position in Serious Fraud. Well done, Nick lad.
