A senior lawyer has described recent police attacks on the state of the justice system as extreme and warned against becoming a "police state".
Chairman of the Bar Council, David Bean QC, made the comments in response to a speech earlier this week by Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir John Stevens.
Sir John said the courts were contributing to a rise in violent crime and robberies by allowing guilty people to walk free through lawyers' exploitation of the system.

Why you so affraid of more police involvement.Isn`t it the case that violant crime in the U.K is on the increase.That people are becoming more affraid to leave there houses at night.Living in a major city there are places that i could take you that within a few minutes you would be beggin for police intervention.Whilst N.W.O is a unknow you might want to fear civil unrest which i could show you in some town and cities is a very real issue.
