Hmmm, I find the 'shouting' comment a little frustrating Blog Discussion

  • Well Martin, you've now found yourself in the same position as a member of the public who's been collared by the media for a vox pop and expected to reply coherently to something of which they had no warning. Or who is being interviewed by a journo with their own agenda which they will stick to come what may.

    My mother-in-law gets scared when you come on the radio. If I'm trying to advise her how to maximise her interest on her savings, I often say "look, if that Martin Lewis was here, he'd be shouting this advice at you!" - and she says "Ok, I'll ring the bank - I don't want him getting on my case."

    I have been providing assistance, including Lay Representation at Court hearings (current score: won 57, lost 14), to defendants in parking cases for over 5 years. I have an LLB (Hons) degree, and have a Graduate Diploma in Civil Litigation from CILEx. However, any advice given on these forums by me is NOT formal legal advice, and I accept no liability for its accuracy.
