Secret courts are once again routine in England. A justice system which once was the beacon of the world is being corrupted by senior judges.

The Open Justice Foundation campaigns against secret court or tribunal hearings closed to the public or press.

We aim to publicise judges or so-called experts who grant themselves the liberty to operate behind closed doors.

We hold it a wrong in democratic society, when the justice system creates a class of unaccountable people who - although paid out of public funds - can not be scrutinised by the electorate.

Making legitimate and legally binding decisions requires principles which prevent injustice, corruption, perjury, rip-off lawyers - unless politicians and press want our courts set on auto pilot flying into doom.

Those who suffer injustice at the hands of legal sharks inside secret courts in England in the year 2001 are forbidden from publicising the injustice suffered on pain of up to 2 years imprisonment for contempt of court.

English gagging orders with a ban on the public's presence during court hearings involve rotten judicial discretion or corruption in proceedings about debt, landlords and tenants, as well as in Family Courts.
