Hi,
I wonder about this organisation a bit now.
The first-name James is from John which is a crucader-name, I think.
(Like in the Order of St. John).
So to put crucaders in charge of human rights and civil rights.
I think it seems a bit like crucaders have hi-jacked this organisation, (Liberty).
If I'm allowed to say that.
Regards,
Erik Ribsskog

Dear Mr Ribsskog,
My colleague Zoë Veater has passed your correspondence to me so that I can review whether Liberty should take up your case.
Please note that nothing was intended by her failing to use “Yours sincerely” at the end of her e-mail to you. The trend seems to be not to use the formalities associated with letter writing when writing
e-mails. Zoë (and indeed myself) are not alone in the less formal ways that we write e-mails.
I am sorry to hear about your situation but, nonetheless, I have decided that we will not be able to assist you. As Zoë indicated, Liberty is a campaigning organisation and we only take on cases that we think
will set a useful precedent or will lead to a change in the law in the areas of law that are of concern to us. Moreover, our legal department is very small and this severely limits the number of cases that we can take on.
Please note that this is the final stage in the appeal process and that we will not correspond with you on this matter any further. I am sorry that we are not able to help you any further.
I wish you all the best.
James Welch
