Apparently the American legal virus has established a beachhead in the UK.

I could see myself,sort of like a Sherlock Holmesian figure, staring across at a representive of the English legal system. I would then say ,in measured tones(in an accent that I am not entitled to). This very slowly and deliberately, "Of course, you are completely stark, raving mad"- I would then confine that person to a safe place, where their mental competance would be evaluated. My liberal spouse, at long last, somehow agrees with me, as to the utter incredibility of it all.
