STEVE FIGHTS BACK

Steve Swatton, who is organising the Bronson Challenge, is taking the Prison Service to The European Court of Human Rights. Steve, a staunch friend of Charlie's, was banned from visiting him, although he has no prison record and no reason has been given. This is obviously the way to go for any of us that have been banned.

Steve started off quite normally by writing to the prison and his MP, then to the government and finally to the Queen ... who passed it back down to the Home Office.

Unhappy with the responses he received and being seemingly shunted from pillar to post, Steve decided to write to The European Court of Human Rights. Here is their response:

I'll keep you informed as to Steve's progress, but now the European Court of Human Rights is involved, I don't expect the case to last very long before Steve gets what he wants: the simple RIGHT to visit his friend!
