@ItsTaz1989 If anyone attempted such a approach I'd say it was deliberate self-sabotage and they weren't serious to start with. You just need to nudge the dial back to reduce incentives and unblock laws (ECHR). Lots of low hanging fruit first.

@martianwyrdlord Had decades of practice

[Andrew C Stuart @AndrewCStuart]

Can you honestly say that the time line you are feel you are on is the real one and all the other Rustys - that are held in only God's mind are not real Rustys? That they are just 'on the shelf' even though they experience time and change at our resolution?

And let's say there is a time line where everyone gets reconciled to God in heaven quickest, fulfilling God's plan, and in obedience to the rules of grace and free will. Would God switch over to that one? Why not? Or are we on it and all alternatives are worse?

Do you not see the labyrinth and madness you down with this idea? It's quicksand.

[Andrew C Stuart @AndrewCStuart]

@MedfordNic82434 @owenbroadcast Lets say that is true. And there is no cheating on the fidelity of each alternative. How does God keep track of which one is real? To know/be them all is have no distinction. To Him we are on all paths. So it gets absurd.

@technopopulist There's a lot of people who don't want the glory of hosting it to redound on Trump's America. And it's so corrupt they are not wrong, despite FIFA being the main problem.

@Danjsalt Not seen any. Even did a search, plenty of complaints/screen shots. Actually curious now

@mcahogarth The fiction is terrible but the meta takes on it are a blast. 😅

The Warehouse Keys That Keeps Getting Lost: Why So Many Magistrates’ Court Cases Collapse on Disclosure

A suspect is interviewed under caution. They give their account - sometimes pointing police towards evidence that could support their innocence or undermine the case against them.

The Officer in the Case (OIC) then compiles the MG6C - the schedule of unused material. Think of it as a warehouse inventory of everything the prosecution won’t be using at trial. By law, anything which might reasonably undermine the prosecution case or assist the defence must be disclosed.

At the plea hearing, the defendant enters a not guilty plea. The court orders the Crown to serve all its evidence and the unused schedule within 28 days.

In reality, that deadline is often treated as optional.

The schedule frequently arrives late - sometimes on the morning of trial - and quite often, not at all.

If the defence wants to inspect items from the warehouse, they serve a defence statement requesting them. The Crown must respond. If they refuse, the defence can make a section 8 CPIA application to the court.

But here’s what happens far too often: the case reaches trial day with the schedule still missing. The Crown applies for an adjournment. The defence oppose it, citing the missed deadlines and chasing correspondence. If the court refuses, the prosecution has no choice but to offer no evidence.

Case dismissed. Defendant walks free. The taxpayer pays for another collapsed trial. The complainant, sitting in witness care, is left wondering why their case simply vanished.

This isn’t a rare disaster - it happens across every Magistrates’ Court in England and Wales, week in, week out. Thousands of trials go down the drain every year due to disclosure failings.

The Attorney General’s Guidelines say disclosure should be completed “in a thinking manner… and not simply as a schedule completing exercise.” In practice, it has become exactly that - a tick-box exercise that is not actioned in time, or at all.

This may not be a single scandal on the scale of the Post Office, but the sheer volume of these failures, day in and day out, makes it one of the most significant ongoing problems in our criminal justice system.

@SarahLudford @UniofOxford @WilliamJHague @michaelpforan Hague is the sort of wet Tory who'd give them a juice box and ask them if they want a spot on an oversite committee

@FischerKing64 Depends on the job I guess

@robertgraham @SwiftOnSecurity @anyaxmar It is not posh. That is it's own whole thing. It's the middle-class southern English

@alexmaccaroon I can imagine them all forming a rainbow collation to keep Reform out😅

@TimPreston93673 Rotten but reversable. If the next government cares

@anon_opin Perhaps that is why the ancients put a great deal of stock in rhetoric. Skills without persuasion are wasted.

@Dr_W_E_Bulmer @BoiledFrog45 I've met many, many Reform members and Reform voters. All of them want to fix the country. None of them are in it for the rage, though the anger is justified. Wrath is exhausting. They are living on scant hope. Reform may fail but that won't be because they don't want to succeed.
