Bogus Forensics For Sale

BBC Radio 4 broadcast 2 otherwise unconnected programmes drawing attention to the state (The State and) of forensics in the UK (except Scotland etc).
The crucial element was that Private companies now used by the police have revealed the blatant bogus case procedures clearly encouraged by previous use of the State Forenic service. That service has recently been refinanced by the government and the Conservatives are opposing its sale to the private sector proper. Meanwhile something very strange has been going on at the Borders Agency (on Immigration, Asylum Seeekers etc) stemming from an implausible (impossible) claim of how a human sacrifice victim was traced to his original by Scotland Yard.
Of course, no-one gets much animated by this news, I suppose. Yet hail to the private sector for blowing the whistle on the State, whilst no-one is listening to the academicised experts for the reasons made large by the East Anglia events.
