Just because something is legal doesn't make it sensible. As we see every day. I think the real issue is only going to show up down the road for the citizens of England. As we know, things aren't ready to get better yet, they haven't gotten bad enough yet.

That being said, she overreacted and the court appears to have ruled within it's abilities.

It's still silly rules though.
