Rupert Murdoch turns the tables on the British Government; the empire strikes back indeed.

About this Blog

Law All Over is a place to voice opinions about the fingerprints the law leaves, well, all over the place. I'm after the ways in which it shapes our lives outside of the formal institutions in which it is normally examined. Sure, occasionally I'll post - or have someone else post - about things that happen in courts or congress, but mostly I want us to talk about what happens when the law gets away from lawmakers, from lawyers, from judges, and from police officers, and gets dirty. Law is all over. Let's talk about it.
