You're not "simply asking questions," Parky - saying it doesn't make it true. You are also making false claims and repeating outright lies. I've made it perfectly clear, many times, very publicly, why I "started this fight." I became actively involved long before there was any "study purpose" or "book material" on the horizon (five years and four years respectively). I understand that you cannot accept that someone would fight so actively for no other reason that a burning need to challenge terrible injustice - just because you can't accept it doesn't mean it's not a fact.
"I became actively involved long before there was any "study purpose" or "book material" on the horizon (five years and four years respectively)"
"Gained substantially"? In what ways?
From around 2002/3 until gaining your doctorate - you were studying the very subject that held your interest and gathering book material.
Stating that you simply had this burning need to challenge terrible injustice - does not make it true, either.
More so Ms Lean - This very claim of terrible injustice, is how you perceive things. You are hardly Just and true in what you do.
Do you agree?
When you put out your first book, there was reference to it being recommended by the CCRC and sitting Judiciary.
Based solely it would seem - on a rather feeble email you produced, with someone stating "Thank you, the CCRC recommended your book"
The CCRC themselves, and not a third party were contacted - they denied recommending your book..
These recommendations by the CCRC were subsequently removed. The sitting Judiciary still stands, as does the book itself.
In 2008 - when all you had to go on where media reports and the word of both CM and LM.
The question was still not answered - whom, on the sitting Judiciary recommended your book?
Self praise perhaps?
You state, you started your PHD in 2008, the book was released in 2008, with reference to studying your PHD at Edinburgh University, rather than Stirling. Many years of study beforehand to obtain a degree and of gathering book material.
7 years by 2010 of actively being involved with injustice. Non disclosure of study material/subjects due to data protection.
It is a very fine line to claim - these two did not go hand in hand - they obviously did.
So yes, IMO and my belief, this was indeed a two way street - You did not solely fight for injustice with Luke's case or
anyone else's, you used material from these - for fighting?, for study and book material, mutually inclusive of each other.
It is no easy fete to complete all of this, many years of hard graft. You have done extremely well to gain your qualifications.
Something to be admired.
However, when pushing forward for injustice continuously - you are hardly Just in doing so.
The lies, the misleading, the misinformation - backed with ludicrous theories, is itself - a double act from both yourself and
CM. As much as you may now attempt - to distance yourself from her claims, putting them down to simple mistakes.
Both most definitely tarred with the same feather?
In simple terms - this justice you seek, you seek by backing lies?
These 9 years of active study in obtaining both your degree and PHD are long over. Doing well in you full time employment.
There is no back up of financial support, there are at present, one would assume no further qualification in the pipeline.
Whatever time you have now to give, is solely from your own time without personal gain. And now is the time your man
hours require payment, thus the plea for funds - to pay for your time.
Rightly so, you are fully qualified now, any work done on this case or others - needs to be met with living costs.
Have you actively stopped working or fighting on other cases now? That this payment asked for, solely to give your time to Luke's case? Or perhaps a bit of every ones? Again, killing two birds with one stone?
