I can only guess that the criminal justice system in the UK must have few safeguards and permits holding people indefinitely without charges, much like the US Federal justice system.

That is an odd conclusion to draw from the sources you quote, which show her being held on specific charges (of arson) and being taken to trial on them.
In reply to Stuart (aka brt): > The secret court aspect hits a nerve though. Secret? > "A woman convicted of arson after a family of five had to flee their home when she allegedly set fire to their shed will serve her sentence in the community. Melanie Shaw ... was found guilty of starting a shed fire and throwing paint on a Sherwood family’s home last month." "Despite denying the charges, she was convicted by a jury’s unanimous verdict of arson, being reckless as to whether life was endangered on February 1, and damaging property at the same house on June 26." Oh, and > Melanie Shaw did not appear in person in court for this hearing, which was conducted by video link from her prison, as has also been the case with previous of her court 'appearances'. She states that without fail, whenever in the past she has given testimony by such video link, she has been cut off on the pretext that "you were shouting", which she denies. If it were that "secret" how come this "UKColumns" a branch of the "British Constitution Group" of numpties, is reporting it? It sounds like she had a mental health hearing while on remand for her arson and paint attacks.

In 1962, 4th of August my mother had her front door kicked in by police in the town of Kirkby a suburb of Liverpool in England.
She was not a criminal and had done nothing wrong.
She was held without charge for well over a month in Strangeway's prison were she was forced to sign a stack of document's but not allowed to read them, a lot of document's like a phone book thick but told that if she did not her children would be take off her and put into care.
She was later brought to a court in Liverpool were no charges were read out to her (a story in the ECHO a local paper later said she had broken into her coin gas meter which she had not and the arresting - kidnapping police officer one Vivienne Webster Jones was then retired form the force and given a public house on the dock road by one Bill Davies a local crook, gangster and builder, we later traced her to london to property that is actually part of my mothers trust but is today disguised as a housing association for elderly resident's called Central and Cecil housing association whose registered charity number is actually My mothers trust fund number as given to us by a concerned and honest tax man called Ian Pryor) but she was instructed by the Judge to eat three square meal's a day and to look after herself, she was extremely thin because her husband at the time a Mr Edward Terence Mc.Ardle was an abusive wife beating coward and a bad man by any definition of the word whom drank every penny he could down at the local pub with his pal's, she finally got away from him in 1968.
She was never told about an inheritance which she later found out she was meant to have recieved in 1951 but which she never had, she is the God daughter, sole heir and blood relative of Lord and Lady Tattershall whom were among the most wealthy people in Britain before the war, owned Tattershall bloodstock's, land and race courses up and down the country and around the empire as well as in the US.
AFTER my mother was forced to sign these document's The Liverpool (then a borough of Lancashire) police suddenly had enough money to gain a fleet of cars which they previously had not had, the had previously only had about 4 car's.
Princess Ann whom the government had no money for suddenly had a large and sustainable income taken from a private source? were the owners of a sizable estate had supposedly all died off - BUT if so it should have gone straigh to the duchy of Cornwall and Charles should have provided his aunt with an income.
My mother never received a penny of her inheritance.
Much later in the late 1980's Ken Hind whom was then the conservative MP for west Lancashire were my mother then lived told her that he could not help, her trust and property had simply been taken illegally but it was so much money that no one would help her, even the government would shut down any investigation?.
So corrupt judiciary and abuse by people in power is an old thing in the UK.
My mother suffered it because she had an inheritance which she never knew about and they wanted it.
It is not just political prisoners, injustice happens all the time, corrupt government, corrupt police and corrupt court's.
The law is not there for you it is there to keep you in your place, it is a tool of those that believe that they OWN you.
The simply fact is that we are governed by criminal's.
