Default FRST brake problem

I have a problem with my brakes, they have started pulling to the left on hard braking. I then accelerate and break again and the pedal goes really hard and brakes dont work. I have bled them today but has made no difference.

Anyone come across this with there FRST.

hmmm ihad a braking problem recently i pushed on the brakes they went right to the floor but did break about mid way but would creep down i checked the pads shoes and cylinders an bled the but still they did it, i thought it was a servo but i bought a servo was about to change it about 2 weeks after it started and it stopped and never did it again

it could be a leak on i pipe or maybe wheel cylinder, the right caliper might be nackered

Defo no leaks. Pedal feels as it should but they pull. Its not a grabbing type of feel, less severe. Front brakes all ok calipers ok new pads and discs fitted 5 weeks ago. Gonna check rear shoes but dont think they are the problem.
