Thompsons senior partner Syd Smith speaks to BBC Scotland about the myth peddled by the insurance industry of a compensation culture. Syd explains how this ruse is used by the well healed insurance industry to put off ordinary working people from seeking justice. The nonsense of the so called compensation culture is something Thompsons will never stop fighting against. It prevents ordinary people seeking justice and seeks to undermine all the gains that have been made over the years to improve health and safety.
