John Hemming's Web Log: Family Courts - how secret are they?
http://johnhemming.blogspot.com/2006/11/family-courts-how-secret-are-they.html
John Hemming's Web Log John's Reference Website. Wednesday, November 29, 2006. Family Courts - how secret are they? What has happened recently is that there have been two judgements in Clayton v Clayton and in NCC v Webster that have both reinterpreted and clarified the situation in terms of proceedings in the Family Courts. I would emphasise that I am not legally qualified and if people wish to check out specific details then they should check them with people who are legally qualified. Mumby's judgemen...

John Hemming's Web Log: Parliamentary Elections and General Elections
http://johnhemming.blogspot.com/2015/05/parliamentary-elections-and-general.html
John Hemming's Web Log John's Reference Website. Friday, May 08, 2015. Parliamentary Elections and General Elections. People vote for all sorts of reasons. Some vote as to who they want to be the local MP. Others vote as to who they wish to see as the prime minister and there can be combinations in between. The postal votes in Yardley which were cast about two weeks before polling day gave me 40%, but on the night I only got just over 25%. This has happened previously. Politicians over think about politi...

John Hemming's Web Log: The Historic Counties of Birmingham
http://johnhemming.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-historic-counties-of-birmingham.html
John Hemming's Web Log John's Reference Website. Thursday, August 06, 2015. The Historic Counties of Birmingham. The Ordnance Survey have uploaded here. Maps of the historic counties of the UK. These varied over time, but I have extracted the boundaries for Birmingham so show where the old counties used to end. I am not sure of the date and I thought that Harborne was at one stage in Staffordshire. Having glanced at Wikipedia it appears that Harborne moved into Warwickshire in 1891. If you want me to res...

John Hemming's Web Log: FMOTL - Magna Carta 1215 and constitutional theories
http://johnhemming.blogspot.com/2015/05/fmotl-magna-carta-1215-and.html
John Hemming's Web Log John's Reference Website. Saturday, May 23, 2015. FMOTL - Magna Carta 1215 and constitutional theories. It remains that some people (sometimes known as Freeman of the Land - aka FMOTL) continue arguing a case based upon a strange interpretation of the UK constitution. This ends up with a strange distinction between common law and statute law and an attempt to argue really quite unorthodox things. Every so often people try to rely on these theories. Can I emphasise:. Hence the found...

John Hemming's Web Log: The background behind Labour's leaflets in Yardley
http://johnhemming.blogspot.com/2015/04/the-background-behind-labours-leaflets.html
John Hemming's Web Log John's Reference Website. Wednesday, April 01, 2015. The background behind Labour's leaflets in Yardley. I am not just more cost effective than any other Birmingham MP. I also subsidise my office from my own resources. For example I pay for a specialist benefits advisor and have taken legal action to force the council to clean up the streets. There are interesting other questions as to how misleading her leaflets are. This is a nice photo of a street party in Westfield Road. Intere...

John Hemming's Web Log John's Reference Website. Wednesday, April 01, 2015. Discretionary Housing Payments and Article 14 ECHR. Story in today's Birmingham Mail is proof that there is a justiciable right under ECHR Article 14 for Discretionary Housing Payments. I have said for some time that the law would require this. It is good to have the confirmation. Posted by John Hemming ¶ 2:03 pm. Comments: Post a Comment. Click Here for access to higher resolution versions of the photos. View my complete profile.

John Hemming's Web Log John's Reference Website. Monday, March 30, 2015. I have been working with Mike Thornton. On the issue of ensuring that the government's commitment to firefighters in terms of their pension (in the case of natural unfitness) is adhered to. He has put a statement on his website (see above for link) which confirms that we continue to press for a letter of comfort for firefighters. Posted by John Hemming ¶ 8:45 am.
