I am sure that Gerry wasn't appointed to COMARE until after they returned from Portugal.

The way the masons work is, they have people lined up well in advance for all these positions, so the actual start date is not that important in practice, only on paper.

[kikoraton]

The question is "how come that Gerry, a run-of-the-mill cardiologist, got appointed to COMARE?" The answer would appear to be, that he knew Shuttleworth and Smethurst through Masonic links well enough in advance (of whatever date he was appointed - it's not really important) in order to be trusted by them and by those in the Government who wanted COMARE to be a reliable rubber-stamp for Govt policy.
On another level, perhaps PdL, and the OC in particular, was chosen because Smethurst knew his way around there and could recommend it as a place where anything goes.

Is TTW4 the same as Buildafire? They post on MCF but don't know if its the same person.

Doubt they are the same person, different posting style.

Shuttleworth & Smethurst appear to have played lead roles in helping BNFL refuse liability for many people who claimed to have suffered the ill-effects of radiation.

Indeed.

Families lose fight to sue BNFL: Court ruling ends legal aid for leukaemia children who lived near nuclear plants

"Alvin Shuttleworth, BNFL's legal director, said: 'We have lived with this shadow over us for a long time. Following our decisive victory in the
Hope and Reay cases it was only right that the rest should either be proceeded with or dismissed. As the judge noted, even the plaintiff's
barrister agreed that these cases would fail if they came to trial today'.!

Isn't this just another example of what a GREAT (not) country the UK has now become when who you know means you get what you want - even if you trash others lives in the process. Not whether you deserve it or not - that is not important.

I am ashamed to be British with all that has been going on and the McCanns are the least of it lately.

Good link. And from a reputable source.
Did C-R do anything about it at the time ?
If not we may assume it was true.
Did the Law Society do anything about it ?
Could they do something now ?
Should they be told officially ?
