[2009] EWCA Crim 912

The admission of a defendant's guilty plea into the trial of his co-defendants on terrorism charges, in a manner that did not show that the defendant was denying every allegation in which some of the co-defendants were involved, did not render their convictions unsafe. That was because there was clear, independent evidence that implicated all the co-defendants, and which had nothing to do with the first defendant's plea.
