    In laymens terms

    As much as I don't want to defend LDC, it's only the Courts which can quash Prescott's original decision. Until that process has been gone through, Ruth Kelly can't officially do anything on getting on with a new decision.

    Rolling Stones

    Saw them on Sunday at Twickers. Not a huge Stones fan myself but bought the tickets as an anniversary present for Mrs 110% who is a fan. Gotta say that everything about it was excellent - the sound, the stage set, the performance. All in all, one of the best concerts I've been to.

    Learning Italian

    Seconded. Its dead easy to follow and its surprising how quick you pick things up. As with all these things, its how much time you can devote to it thats important. I got halfway through the Italian one, listening to it on the way to work but then changed jobs and haven't had the time to carry on.

    Important Questions for Lord Bracknell

    The Government has conceded one of LDC’s points but maintains that the other 15 points raised by LDC have no merit. Therefore, the High Court will quash John Prescott’s decision, there is no real argument about that, because he made an error in the interpretation of local planning policy and...

    High Court dates confirmed - LDC press release

    Dream on Easy! What LDC are saying is that they will withdraw from the legal action if the Government says that all 16 points raised by LDC are correct. If the Government does that, it bascially makes it nigh on impossible for Ruth Kelly to give an approval when she reconsiders the scheme.

    Season tickets

    Didn't want to renew, couldn't afford it but couldn't stop myself from renewing it - fortunately those nice people at Visa bought it for me.

    Thursday morning GAME

    Ah. Just got No.7 - its a lot easier than No. 5, which took bloody ages - especially if you haven't read the books or seen the films! (Not too much of a clue there I hope?)

    Not a Single Banner Visible Around the Ground

    Someone on the radio this morning suggested that the Germans aren't into flags/banners these days as it's too similar to the Nazi rallies. Not sure how true that explanation is?

    Judicial review

    Section 288 of the 1990 Town and Country Planning Act sets out that an application can be made to the High Court to question the validity of an action or decision by the Secretary of State. There are other sections which provide similar powers to challenge other aspects of planning, such as the...

    Judicial review

    Re: Re: Judicial review If we are getting really picky its an application to the High Court!! But it all boils down to the same thing in the end.

    Judicial review

    LDC have more than a reasonable connection, so there is no question of the court not taking them seriously. The Treasury Solicitor has already conceded the point about the boundary and as its a pretty basic fact which was applied incorrectly in the decision letter from the Secretary of State...

    Judicial review

    I'll try and answer the questions but it might be a bit long winded and dry and I don’t like marrow but here goes nonetheless…… A JR is a review of the way that the decision was reached. What this means is that the court is looking at whether the legal requirements were followed or if there...

    Edinburgh

    Not been to Edinburgh for a few years but apparently the cafe at the top of Harvey Nics has good views over the city (and its warmer and easier than climbing up Arthur's Seat!)

    FAO Lord Bracknel re proposed Incinerator

    Interesting that ESCC ended up opposing the production of fuel from rubbish on environmental grounds The locals were firmly of the opinion that the site was causing health problems and one of the local councillors in particular campaigned in support of having the plant closed down. The legal...

    FAO Lord Bracknel re proposed Incinerator

    After a few years, the Council sold the project to a private sector operator (Reprotech) and production was moved to a new plant at Pebsham, next to the landfill site at the western edge of Hastings. Production increased significantly, but so did public concern about emissions from the chimney...
