I'm sure he was a nice guy, but. . .
Lord Denning must be the bane of the existance of every 20th Century English Law student. Seriously, just about the time you feel like you're getting to grips with the established case law, when, *boom* up pops Denning like a really annoying jack-in-the-box with some obscure, left-field legal reasoning that totally departs from all known principle. Perhaps he missed the lecture where it was said that the whole point of common law reasoning was that you give weight to precedent, not throw it out the window just because you think you have a better idea.
Seriously, it's getting to the point that our entire class groans when he's mentioned in lecture. And of course, since he sat on the bench for nearly 50 years, you can't just ignore him.
*sigh* back to reading contract law and dreading diving into Butler Machine Tools even though it will probably be quite relevant for my daily work.
