Agreed, something even more outrageous I heard on BBC news 24 this morning was a solicitor saying that the government had recently passed a law capping compensation for "wrongful imprisonment" at £500,000. Apparently in the past it was set by an independent board with no ceiling, as obviously every case is different, imo there shouldn't be any cap, presumably these cases are rare so when the state makes a mistake they should have to make all amends possible, not try and save a few bob.
