Birmingham City Laboratories and Conservation


I spent part of this morning reviewing the food laboratory in Garretts Green and looking at some conservation issues in Acocks Green.

Both are important issues. We are what we eat and the safety of that and certainty of safety are both important issues. The nature of the built environment is important to everyone. There was a rather sad Sunday demolition of a property last year - which was to avoid it being listed. A old property property on Yardley Road is being messed about without planning permission at the moment. The wheels of bureacracy grind slowly, but should be able to get there.

Six months for recording a court hearing - Norman Scarth

The link is in Russian about the imprisonment of Norman Scarth who is actually 85. He has a complex history including a court hearing which found that he used a chainsaw to fight off bailiffs when he was 75. [a court judgment which is disputed see comments] However, that does not justify imprisoning him for 6 months for recording a court hearing (see the link and ask google to translate it if your Russian is not up to it). It has got into the Argyll News Because he has been held such that people cannot get to him to sign paperwork an application for a writ of Habeas Corpus was made today. This has been adjourned until next week. The English judicial system is really not good at responding to major abuses of human rights by the judicial system.
