The judgements of religious courts should have the same status as the judgements made by for example golf club committees. Both are essentially organisations based on membership. Members can be expelled for breaking the organisations rules or resign if they disagree with the rules. Any sanction or punishment handed out by either must comply with national law. <br />CapMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4411161795798360588.post-52356617547310703292022-08-15T16:56:08.284+01:002022-08-15T16:56:08.284+01:00I agree with you that only those involved will kno...I agree with you that only those involved will know the real detail and it is difficult and dangerous from the outside to come to definitive answers. All these cases are sad and occur in different environments, but in most cases the damage and injury are similar.<br />Two questions that come to mind –<br />Should you know the moral standing of your barber, butcher, bus driver or dentist before you hire them? Should you have the right to reject them on what you may find distasteful e.g., the Northern Ireland baker case?<br />The other question is should all sections of society abide by the Laws of England, or should some sections be exempt due to their alternative moral code which comes from a multi- racial society? Which will afford less protection in some marriages.<br />My view is that if your contract for hire does not specify the need to know the persons moral or criminal record then it is not an issue, and you judge their contract on the quality of the service they are employed to do. To the second question, the majority view must prevail unless a special court, which is incorporated and recognised in law is established, such as the Jewish courts on religious and domestic issues.<br />Spirit of BMEnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4411161795798360588.post-86175894715431337942022-08-13T14:54:28.447+01:002022-08-13T14:54:28.447+01:00Any member of the electorate here in Wales has a r...Any member of the electorate here in Wales has a right to be "interested". Initially I accepted Edwards' return to the fold as a bit of closure after about 2 years of police procedure and being cast into the wilderness by Plaid. However this recent statement from the soon to be ex- Mrs Edwards suggests that there were some odd behaviours by Plaid officers back in 2020 and that recent decision making was not fully informed of the off the record activities of said press officer. It may put people in East Carms off voting for Edwards or any replacement Plaid candidate at the next GE. Equally it may put people off voting for them in other parts of Wales as there is a lack of real transparency ( one of Plaid's own favorite phrases when sinking its teeth into some other delinquent). It may not affect the wider prospects much because we are already into overloads of dodgy and/or deviant behaviours from other parties. However it may just prompt more people to opt out altogether or even vote for a Farage Mk 3-4-5 or whatever crackpot outfit that turns up purporting to defend the "common citizen" yet funded by shadowy hedge fund types and wealthy tax dodgers based offshore. dafishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04216920242825385976noreply@blogger.com
