I know your comment was aimed at madf, but as mine wasn't far off his, I'll bung my oar in anyway.
The Full Code test that the CPS apply is riddled with subjectiveness....and...it is applied differently in differing circumstances, so to say it's a one size fits all is complete balderdash
For example, if a police officer committed a crime or the average citizen committed the same crime...the police officer is more likely to be prosecuted...(and most people would think that right and proper).
However, if the evidence was extremely limited or there's a 50/50 decision to be made, the 'public interest stage' should not outweigh the 'evidential stage', trouble is, it sometimes does.
Who is making these decisions? How accountable are they? Do they get it right?
