  • Senior Scotland Yard officers were meeting Hoyle in person on Wednesday afternoon to explain their error, which is regarded internally as a serious breach of protocol.


    An official custody document shared with Mandelson’s lawyers is understood to have referred to the Lords speaker as the source of the information – a mistaken reference to Hoyle, the Commons speaker.

    After the Lords speaker, Michael Forsyth, said it was “entirely false and without foundation” to say he had tipped off police, Hoyle went public with the fact it was him.

    Incompetence on top of incompetence. The Met are really putting their best and brightest on this case.














  • It can still be unanimous among the rest of the nations to be deemed legitimate.

    Freedom of association encompasses both an individual’s right to join or leave groups voluntarily, the right of the group to take collective action to pursue the interests of its members, and the right of an association to accept or decline membership based on certain criteria. It can be described as the right of a person coming together with other individuals to collectively express, promote, pursue and/or defend common interests.[1]

    Freedom of association is both an individual right and a collective right, guaranteed by all modern and democratic legal systems, including the United States Bill of Rights, article 11 of the European Convention on Human Rights, section 2 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and international law, including articles 20 and 23 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and article 22 of International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. The Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work by the International Labour Organization also ensures these rights.

    Hungary is undermining the EU at every turn, if the rest of the membership wish to boot them out I think it would be quite easy for them to write up a compelling case for how and why.


  • Calocane, who was a student at University of Nottingham at the time, later had a mental health assessment where he described hearing voices. The assessment concluded Calocane was dealing with a first episode of psychosis, which was attributed to sleep deprivation and exam-related stress.

    Langdale said a doctor involved in the assessment had been “leaning towards” sectioning Calocane due to it being his “first presentation of psychosis” and a lack of information about his risk history. However, a team of mental health professionals considered research evidence that examined the over-representation of young black men in detention.

    It’s shit like this that gives the racists ammo.

    I’m not a medical expert by any stretch of the imagination, so I may be talking out my arse here, but it sounds like unless it’s explicitly pertinent to the assessment the team shouldn’t be made aware of the ethnicity of the person they’re assessing. So they can neither positively or negatively discriminate.
