            <title>One lady&apos;s battle with the NHS</title>
            <description>The fight started when her GP refused to accept she was seriously ill. When they finally accepted there was a problem, the hospital doctors were equally guilty of gross negligence. By the time they eventually acknowledged she had Cervical Cancer, much other damage had been done to her organs. This led to a suit for medical negligence. But the NHS have powerful and merciless barristers.</description>

            <title>Corporate dishonesty</title>
            <description>We might expect large companies to have high principles but the fact is that many have no scruples at all. Customers are no longer considered to be an essential ingredient of the company&apos;s success so &quot;customer service&quot; is a phrase that is rapidly losing its meaning.</description>

            <title>Tough on crime? Not the police.</title>
            <description>If the punishment for your &quot;crime&quot; will produce revenue for the authorities, expect the police to come down heavily on you. But if you want to steal or beat up innocent people, you don&apos;t have to fear the police or courts - they&apos;re not that interested.</description>

            <title>Government malpractice</title>
            <description>Life under New Labour is increasingly state-controlled. They want to snoop on us and know about everything we do and say, but they don&apos;t want any accountability for their own actions. Whenever they are taken to task, they spin a fabric of lies believing we are too stupid to realise the truth. But the truth can be revealed ...</description>
