Somebody has got the wrong Law Lord

[edit]

"His tenure as Senior Law Lord was marred by the controversy surrounding the Pinochet extradition case."

Utter tosh! It was Hoffman who did not declare his association with Amnesty International, which caused the crisis and uniquely led to a House of Lords decision being set aside. Lord Browne-Wilkinson (who should surely be addressed as Sir Nicholas, irrespective of what The Times chose to call him) had the unenviable task of sorting the mess out, which he did with aplomb. How on earth does that "marr" a distinguished career? That would be libelous if Sir Nicholas was still alive.Kombo the mzungu (talk) 18:16, 5 May 2020 (UTC).[reply]
