A one day hearing for such a serious charge of trafficking over a 3 year period. Surely each and every act needed to be laid out and proved? In a single day?

Judge: How do you plead?

Defendents: Not Guilty.

Judge: Stifled laughter

Prosecution: We caught them sending drugs to the UK.

Judge: Well done, good job.

Prosecution: The prosecution rests.

Judge: See you all in April when I will announce my verdict of guilty.

Judge leaves in plenty of time for his 11am tee-off.

Didn’t HE say something about condemning Russia, recently? Maybe he’s fully on board with this?

Maybe the Ukrainian girl will get a 'not guilty'.

Prey, tell? What have the police to do with this?
