I have a growing sense of unease about the Americanisation of British societys attitude towards mental health. In th stanley cup e 1980s, British audiences smiled bemusedly at neurosis-laden Woody Allen films and the normality with which American telev stanley cup ision and cinema treated notions of therapy, meds and interventions. To a British ear, the protagonists of these human melodramas could seem self-absorbed, foolish and narcissistic; figures of fun to be pitied for their inability to maintain a sti stanley flasche ff upper lip and their ignorance of the power of a strong cup of tea. Yet now these are all concepts that have been normalised in Britain too.Mental health is talked about using the language of epidemics, and has been commoditised into something to be ordered over the counter: professionals, pills and a side of talking therapy.

Although other news agencies have called him Rudolph Mayer , as a conspiracy theorist, I assume that News Corporation thought Rupert sounded more fitting.Mayer s appearance in the trial, and reputation as a lawyer who takes on notoriously difficult and offensive cases, brought to mind another great name, Jacques Verg猫s, who defended both Klaus Barbie and Carlos the Jackal. These men, who could critically be described as stanley website taking money to defend evil-doers, embody the answer that a stanley travel mug ll barristers give when challenged in my case, most recently by my driving instructor as to how they can defend people who have committed unspeakably bad acts. The cab rank principle applies, and all defendants are entitled to fearless representation, because it is for the jury, and not the barristers, to decide guilt.Not all advocacy which calls this principle into action is defence-based work. The expression devil s advocate is closely linked to the prosecution work carried out against candidates fo
