By Mike Buchanan [J4MB]: I had until today assumed that the illegality of MGM in the UK hadn’t been revealed publicly by a legally qualified person before James Chegwidden, a barrister, revealed it in his talk at Keele University in 2013. I was wrong. Earlier today I received an email from Patrick Smyth, reproduced here in full:

I don’t recall mentioning the work of Chris Price to you. I sadly never met him since he died before I became involved with NORM UK. He was a solicitor and a staunch intactivist. He compiled an absolutely monumental thesis on the illegality of infant male circumcision in 1996 which is still available on the Circumcision Reference Library website:

He also submitted an article to the Bulletin of Medical Ethics in 1997:
