https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/SENTENCING-REMARKS-McCANN.pdf
This is the judges sentencing remarks but it seems the judge passed the buck and rather than give him a whole life tariff he’s left it to a Parole Board in the future to decide whether he’s released.

Maybe the time has come to have a referendum to abolish the monarchy??? I know which box my X would go in.
Just out of interest, would you replace the Monarch with something else? For example a President or Emperor.

I doubt they will serve the full sentence, mixing with like minded scum in prison will no doubt make them perfect citizens to be released back onto society, life should mean life in cases like this, no early release, if need be build more prisons to keep them in.
They received the mandatory life sentence for murder, with a minimum term. They cannot be released until the end of that minimum term, and then only if they are considered fit to return to society. That said, I would have liked to have seen whole life terms given to both of them but because either as teenagers or the crime wasn’t ‘bad enough’ this is ‘not acceptable’ to society.

You could ask the Local Authority to consider the complainant (assuming all complaints are from the same person and only the LA would know that) as vexatious. The LA could then legitimately ignore further complaints about barking without worrying that the complainant might lodge a complaint that the barking complaint was ignored.

they want to get the ones with no licence,not law abiding people like us,they want none of us to have guns,
That’s the problem. The scroats with illegal guns are sometimes difficult to find but us law abiding types....they know where we are and can ignore guidance as they see fit to make it increasingly more difficult for us.

mine wanted £20 i never paid.
I am minded to do this, ie not pay, but what happens next time? Does the practice keep a record of my not paying and simply refuse to comply with any future request. That would mean having to find another GP and in rural areas they are thin on the ground!

I was on my way home from a stalking trip, with a couple of hours to go I pulled into a garage for a coffee. Dressed in stalking suitable clothing with my rifle bolt in a leather holder on my belt. Inside the garage shop were some 8 to 10 police officers having a break, coffee and sandwiches etc. I walked over to the Costa machine and while the coffee was being made one of the policemen walked over and asked whether I had a knife on my belt, the top of the holder being covered by my flapping shirt. I said no and that it was a rifle bolt, explaining where I had been and what I had been doing. That’s ok he said, had it been a knife I would have had to ask more questions but he and his colleagues were comfortable about the rifle in the car.

Sadly - this may be Brexit's demise.
There is a 'near 50/50' split in the country over the whole electorate between leave and remain.
There are (in Parliament) 3 'significant' parties (Con, Lab, LibDem), plus some regional ones (SNP, DUP, Plaid Cymru)
There is only one significant party (Con) committed to Brexit. LibDem and now Lab are both now (apparently in Lab's case) committed to remain. The majority of the regional seats are also remain.
The ONLY WAY brexit will happen is by a majority in Parliament.
The Brexit party did well in the Euro elections. However neither it - nor predecessor, UKIP, nor it's leader Nigel Farage has ever won a single Westminster seat.
If the the politicians (Johnson, Farage, Mogg et al) want Brexit then they MUST stand with a single leave candidate in any constituency. It is the ONLY way brexit will ever happen.
If Farage and Johnson want to leave - this is the ONLY path that will achieve it.
If only politicians were as clear in their thinking as this.

This constituency would always be between the Conservatives and Liberal Democrat’s. I spoke with a guy from the Brexit Party at a stall in my local town asking him why they were standing, didn’t he feel that any one voting for them would reduce the Conservative vote. I also mentioned that some ‘remain’ parties had decided not to field a candidate to focus the remain vote as the by election seemed to be about remaining or leaving. He thought his party could win and that by doing so would show Parliament that people were fed up with the status quo. It didn’t seem to matter that the party wanting to overturn the referendum result might succeed.

The reply from my MP:
Thank you for your email, it was good of you to get in touch.
This whole situation regarding the revocation of these General Licences has been appalling. I have been in three meetings so far about this issue, and as Chair of the DEFRA backbench committee I have had a private meeting the Secretary of State, Michael Gove to discuss the issue and its potential ramifications in Wales.
The Welsh Assembly have been watching closely the developments in England, and I hope that the Welsh Government won’t be in a position where there is gap between a new system of licenses and the old. Even a gap of a few days would be problematic for farmers at this time of year.
I will continue to keep abreast of the situation and I will be meeting with colleagues next week to help work out a way forward.
Kind regards,
Chris Davies MP
