– All Acts of Parliament are ‘statutes’ known variously as legislation, regulations or rules. They are not laws. Statutes are often incorrectly referred to as laws by ‘trained’ barristers and solicitors, but the correct interpretation would be ‘black letter law’ (meaning statutes) which are distinguishable from ‘law’ i.e. common law – and for a purpose, the purpose being that statutes and laws are different. If Acts of Parliament were laws they would be called ‘Laws of Parliament.’ Parliament knows the distinction which it quite rightly maintains. Look at any Act of Parliament and you will notice the absence of the word law – that will give you the first clue that there is a difference. Parliament maintains the distinction between statutes and laws because those ‘in the know’ use this knowledge for their personal benefit.

– A ‘statute’ is defined as a rule or regulation of a society – they are edicts of legislation used to govern that society. Statutes are subject to the consent of the society – and this is individual consent and not collective consent. We belong to society as a matter of choice.

– The distinction between a law and a statute is that a law applies equally to us all but statutes can be made to favour one sector of society over others, for example, people with disabilities are given preferential parking privileges (which is fair enough) and politicians have given themselves special dispensations re their expenses which the rest of us do not have (which is outrageous).

– The ultimate constraint on the abuse of authority (office) is the peoples ability to withdraw their consent to being governed – and at any time, not just at elections. Without consent, authority enforced becomes power and government then becomes tyrannical. We never give ‘power’ to those we elect, we merely give them authority to act on our behalf. Today’s governing bodies are slowly mutating into tyrannies, because they are ignoring the principles of consent and are securing ‘power’ for themselves.

“KEEP YOUR MONEY”

Geesch – can’t wait to hear from CURB and anyone else coming out of the woodwork to weigh in on the disgusting events of Friday, that clearly showed the disgusting and REAL agenda and behaviour of a MINORITY of people that are PUSHING THEIR EVIL AGENDA DOWN OUR, the MAJORITY of voters, THROATS – day in, day out without end.

This was NOT A LOFTY event folks as now (trying) to be spread around. BLOCKING ACCESS to the HOA so as to not allow ELECTED MPs to conduct the people’s business is unlawful and you were given time and asked repeatedly to move. There was nothing lofty about your behaviour and disgusting actions and you need to get a grip and face the truth.

Anyone see a patern here?

It’s all blatant intimidation and fueling the fires set by same.

Part two will make 1977 look like a Guy who gives a Fawkes display.

Peace.

burt made a rallying call to his devotees to descend on and to disrupt Parliament. people including seniors disobeyed police orders. people including seniors were sprayed with an incapacitor in an attempt to disperse the crowd. the seniors were not deliberatedly singled out and sprayed. to suggest that they were is pure propaganda.

what was the root cause? not what were the consequences for disobedience.

“Peaceful assembly must also be distinguished from activity that can constitute a criminal offence. By way of clarification, the law does not permit those gathered for assembly and protest to block public access ways or rights of way.

“Section 12[c] of the Parliament Act 1957 provides that any person who wilfully interferes or attempts to interfere with the free exercise of any member of Parliament or Senator of their duties commits an offence.

Further, is it me or did anyone else take issue with Commissioner of Policy Michael DeSilva saying that police had lawfully used the pepper spray? He is stating that even before they had completed or even started any investigation to look into the use of it!

BPS should Not Investigate BPS

Health of a Society is Judged by the Behaviour of the Children and the Treatment of the Seniors

“Make Bermuda Great Again”

” Today, our people were not violent; they experienced an egregiously violent response to their right to assembly.”

That’s just utter BS.

They were used and new it that’s why such defiance but guess what; you don’t f off a policeman and push them and hit them when your told to move, disperse so many times over hours.

Next week they will bring out people in wheelchairs
Dislike all you want.

If the AC still happens it will be the last time people will see sustainment.

Glad I live in London on a freebee and the dole……………..
