"You snooze, you lose..."

Bad news for anyone thinking of responding to the consultation on the new electric vehicle duty.

The consultation opens today, and closes last March.

Asking sensible questions like that won't help....

The Home Office has struggled with organisation and systems approaches for some time. It appears to feel constantly overwhelmed and fire fighting, rather than actually "doing".

Asylum claim used to equal grant of ILR. Changed by the Blair govt to 5 years then application for ILR (rare for this not to be granted, unless criminal convictions). How active the reconsideration would be after 2.5 years - unknown.

The UK has this, too. We won't extradite to a country which has the death penalty without an assurance that it won't be applied in that particular case. Including to the USA.

Articles 2 and 3 don't involve any balance. They are absolute. With some fudging in some areas (medical issues, for example).

I don't know about this particular case at all. It is entirely possible, though, to be granted leave to remain in the UK if there is an Article 2/3 ECHR risk on return even if the risk arises wholly and completely from that person's own abhorrent behaviour. Articles 2/3 are absolute rights. 1/2

My name is Amanda Jones. I was born at the end of the 1970s. I was 21 before I discovered (and then told my parents, who hadn't known either) that this song even existed....

J.K. Rowling - Philanthropic People J.K. Rowling’s story is one filled with strife and struggle and ending with stunning success. She is best known for authoring the renowned Harry Potter series, which propelled her from poverty into fa...

She's donated hundreds of millions over the past two decades, including to charities for women and children. "In 2011, she gave away about 16% of her net worth, or $160 million dollars." philanthropicpeople.com/profiles/j-k...

But not necessarily much of a lag - I started first sixth in October 2001, was called after that and started second sixth in April 2002, fully qualified at the end of September 2002.

If my Dearly Beloved had said "we are pregnant" I would have become a single soon-to-be-mother. Because he absolutely, definitely, wasn't pregnant. "We are expecting a baby", or "we're going to have a baby in July" or whatever, I'm cool with that. But only one of us was pregnant.

If you can exclude men, you can exclude trans women. Because they are men, not women, under the EqA.

Yes. In the same way as if I'm thrown out of an event for being Muslim. I'm not Muslim, but if I'm thrown out of it on the mistaken basis that I am, it's discrimination on the grounds of religion.

A couple might share a car, I agree. Or a holiday. Sharing a child sounds a bit judgment of Solomon?

In legal terms in the UK, as stated by the Supreme Court yesterday, trans women are men.
