'European Commissioner for Human Rights questions legitimacy of European Mental Capacity legislation'

The link is to a comment by the Commissioner for Human Rights of the Council of Europe in which he says, inter alia, "Persons with intellectual and psycho-social disabilities are today routinely placed under a guardianship regime in several European countries - they are deprived of their “legal capacity”. In the eyes of the law they are seen as non-persons and their decisions have no legal relevance. This policy violates agreed human rights standards."

I have always thought this to some extent in any way.

couldn't really let that one go by without saying soemthing....but I am getting more than a lil sick of constantly explaining the blatantly obvious to numpties on this planet....

in reality there is NO SUCH THING as a mental illness- humans are complex emotional beings by their very nature....evrybody is different....arguably the only ones with 'something wrong with them' are the one's who go around unilaterally deciding who is and who isn't...they dnt even accuse their victim of anything....just attack and bad mouth people behind their backs....not even pretense of a jury, judge or any 'legal process'...

same page though....post on conscientious objectors to military service....didn't know that/ but just isn't true in practice.....but how is that any different to a 'campaign of civil disobedience'? and presumably not legal to violetly attack pople who do that sort of thing...pre-emptively or otherwise!

another recent article...suspected pigyobs attacked this guy with dogs, sveral dozen of them, heavily armed wearing masks (not the dogs)...didn't say anything, deliberately drove a van into him....never accused him of breaking any law or anything...but apparently they used the fact that he tried to defend himself (no evidence of that either) as 'evidence' of a mental illness...not that he had any chance of defending agains the accusation by the time they got around to accusing...already chemically labotimised several months previous and fried with electrodes to the brain....vegetable, basically.....how absurd is that?

anybody that does any work, paid or otherwise, for this govt/ gang is just as guilty....it's the law apparently! not that i'm any kind of naval vessle, obviously.....

NHS reorganisation No 3,493,233

Followers of my blog will have seen the NHS question about how many reorganisations have we had. We've yet another. The number of PCTs (Primary Care Trusts) nationally is to halve. This means merging East and North. (and then probably HoB and south). It would be nice if people would stick with one structure. There is a quotation ( Which sadly does not appear to be a true quotation ) We trained hard . . . but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganized. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing; and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization. But has to have been originated by someone. The web link shown goes through the derivation which appears to be more linked to an anonymous British Soldier WW2 than any Roman or Greek General called by a name perming 2 out of (Gaius, Galus, Petronius and Arbiter).
