I was not allowed (by my own legal team) to call people like this as character witnesses at my trial; the few I WAS allowed to call were despite my lawyers saying "the judge will stress that you may have been a very nice person to most people but not to these 5 men".

Why are they asking her about Savile?

The judge is really trying to be infamous.

Because they haven't got a case !

As Savile is "guilty" - even though he has never been convicted of anything ! - they are hoping to smear one person with the reputation of another.

We British are to blame.
In our "goodness" we try and empathise with those who have genuinely been abused. We try to help them, and support them ... and in doing so, put all common sense and reason out of the door !

We forget that there are dodgy people out there - conmen, scroungers, thieves etc - and want to believe the good in all people.

We are foolish to do so.

The law should be changed immediately - so people of good character cannot have their reputations destroyed (for reasons not yet known) while the claimants - who have allowed any possible evidence to disappear by delaying complaints - can hide behind anonymity.
