Hammersmith Council Undermining the Courts
I'd be interested to hear what people thought of the following which has appeared on the Council's web site.http://www.lbhf.gov.uk/Directory/News/Landlord_receives_derisory_fine.asp#4I don't know the facts of the case but Magistrates are both volunteers and highly trained for their role so it does seem grossly unfair for them to be castigated in this way. It seems like a issue of sour grapes or even worse possibly motivated by a personal grievance. There are clearly two sides to this story - if someone buys a flat above a dry-cleaners then noise and smell are to be expected and the owner has a right to do business. Mr Azeem pays his rates and the least he could expect in return is that the Council he pays them to respects the decision of the court.
