Incredible - at last a JUDGE who is willing to put the TRUTH out there.
It recognises the defence has a big job of getting an alibi.
This could OVERTURN hundreds of convictions.
Anyone convicted in the past on historical allegations where the judge did not give these directions should be able to appeal on that basis.
Maybe the tide will turn now NEW LABOUR are out of office - even though the BBC is ramping up the "Paedohysteria" today on the main news.....incredible load of rubbish about Internet Chat Rooms ( been done to death and kids are really good at spotting fakes )
