The news is that there isn't any news but some will come along shortly
I did a radio interview for Viking FM this morning at 11, to be broadcast tomorrow on the news bulletins. The interviewer was Adam Westbrook, who also reads the news, and keeps an eye out on developing stories on my blog. The subject of the interview is the Prisoners Votes Case, the 3 legal challenges involved, and the possible impact upon the legal validity of the 4 June 2009 European Election.
When it goes out, I will get a podcast and upload it on to my blog.
Tomorrow at 10.30am the film crew will arrive to film a piece for the Politics Show on BBC1 on Sunday. The interviewer, political correspondent, Tim Iredale, will be covering in greater depth the same story as above.
I can also report that the Prison Reform Trust has submitted a Freedom of Information Act request for the government to publish the results of the consultation exercise into whether convicted prisoners should be allowed the vote.
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.
