Dear Mr Clark,

The unelected Prime Minister, Mrs May, and her cabinet, have now been put on notice by unelected tax-avoiding press barons.:Do not step out of line.

As the rightwing press take a giant goosestep towards fascism it would appear that the Justice Minister has deserted her post and gone AWOL.

Some have suggested that she's hiding in Rupert Murdoch's pocket whilst others believe that she's waiting for further instructions from Lord Rothermere as to what to think and do next. Either way her vanishing act isn't good for our fragile democracy or for people seeking justice. They're going to have to work an awful lot harder to find it now that politically motivated press barons are accusing judges of being politically motivated. 

Clearly, the press now need to be regulated as self-regulation has proven once again, to be a total disaster (very much like the RICS and its creature Ombudsman Services:Property) Certain editors are now obviously totally out of control and running amok.

They have nothing but contempt for our democracy.

Rigged/captured market capitalism, corporatism, less and less transparency and accountability, more an more rightwing demagogues has pushed the centre ground even further to the right and is undermining democracy and justice.

It's become; government of the rigged market capitalists, by the rigged market capitalists and for the rigged market capitalists. .

What could be more rigged than a press that insists upon regulating itself, whose owners avoid paying taxes and yet who can't prevent themselves from telling many of those unaccustomed to thinking for themselves, just what to think?

Q. Mr Clark, when is the Justice Minister going to step up and challenge the vested interests of tax avoiding press barons and right the wrong of those powerful and largely unaccountable individuals who threaten the judiciary and our democracy?

Yours sincerely,
Steve Gilbert - The Ombudsmans61percent Campaign.
