Recent findings and collaboration with TPUC members & fellow researchers has allowed John to present in simple terms his understanding of Political and Regal history, Common Law, Statute Law, Contracting and much more.<BR/><BR/>He gives a stand up account of history and Magna Carta's relevance to us.<BR/>Interestingly, he asks who in a subject sovereignty, is represented.<BR/>I noted the premise of this question wasn't really explored further when talking of the creation of parliament, but if you think about it, if a member of parliament has no legal requisite to actually represent his constituent electors ( us ),then "we" have no political rights at all. We actually get a choice of parties but the party we elect has no legal requisite to actually carry out its manifesto. Even in the case of referenda a government and parliament has no duty to act on it but instead ( like an MP ), can act on its own conscience and thus ignore the people. <BR/><BR/>Check the video out.rugfishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05581952345004875137noreply@blogger.com
