"It is common ground between the parties that it is not possible for a life sentence to be ordered to run consecutively to
another life sentence. Nor is it possible to order that a minimum term order should run consecutively to a minimum term order made at an earlier sentencing hearing."
But why shouldn't it be possible?
And (speaking generally here) I never understand why sentences for multiple offences are invariably concurrent. Seems like they get a free pass for all but one of their crimes.
