Send us a textIn this episode we take a  deep-dive into Britain's underground festival counterculture with filmmaker Aaron Trinder, creator of the groundbreaking documentary "Free Party: A Folk History." Aaron reveals how the free festival culture of the 60s and 70s collided with the explosive rave scene of the late 80s and 90s, creating a movement so powerful that the government literally rewrote the law to stop it. From the legendary Castlemorton Common Festival of 1992 - a 50,000-strong gathering that triggered the Criminal Justice Act - to the chaotic Spiral Tribe NYE party at the Roundhouse, Aaron shares stories from the frontlines of cultural warfare and his 7-year DIY odyssey to preserve these forgotten histories.Aaron's grassroots filmmaking journey, battling music licensing and mainstream media, mirrors the same DIY spirit that built the free party movement. Shaped by childhood experiences in West London squats and punk venues, he brings an insider's perspective that no academic could replicate. The film explores how the Criminal Justice Act wasn't just about noise complaints but was a direct assault on the radical idea that people could gather freely without corporate or state control."This film is a unique look at a much-underrepresented moment in cultural history. It was the last great unifying youth movement before the digital age, one that challenged the authorities, connected environmental awareness with music, and questioned laws on land rights and trespass. With new laws criminalising trespass and protest across Europe, the story is more relevant than ever."Director - Aaron TrinderLinks to show your supporthttps://youtu.be/YGy_lDDqO9E?si=5iZLuBeaApQvH4nAhttps://freepartydoc.info/https://www.instagram.com/freepartydocumentary/https://www.facebook.com/aaron.trinder.5/https://alanlodge.co.uk/https://www.instagram.com/tashukSupport the showhttps://www.youtube.com/@ControlledWeirdnesshttps://open.spotify.com/artist/20nC7cQni8ZrvRC2REZjOIhttps://www.instagram.com/controlledweirdness/https://controlledweirdness.bandcamp.com/Theme song is Controlled Weirdness - Drifting in the Streetshttps://open.spotify.com/track/7GJfmYy4RjMyLIg9nffuktHosted from a South London tower block by Neil Keating aka Controlled Weirdness.

Giving new meaning to “this song f*cks,” Super Furry Animals' 1996 single “The Man Don't Give a Fuck” is a psychedelic protest anthem built on a looped Steely Dan sample, fifty f-bombs, and a whole lot of righteous chaos.  In this episode, Yasi is once again joined by Scotswoman and known Super Furry Animals mega fan, Chloë Walsh, to make the case for this song's perfection (with a bunch of band lore and Welsh history shoehorned in, of course). From its origins as a B-side protest against the UK's Criminal Justice Act to its transformation into a ravey, 23-minute-long fan favorite gig-closer — “The Man Don't Give a Fuck” isn't just a song, it's a statement. A tanked-up, freaked-out, absolutely uncompromising statement. Let the sample loop. Let the synths soar. The man still don't give a f*ck.

The announcement that the Ministry of Justice has commissioned the Law Commission to undertake a comprehensive review of homicide law and sentencing in murder cases alongside the Gauke review of sentencing in non-homicide cases means that sentencing policy in England and Wales will be reviewed simultaneously by two separate bodies. Given the role of longer sentences for murder in increasing sentences across the board, is this  a sensible way to tackle the sentence inflation generated over the past twenty years which is the principal cause of the current prisons crisis? And with the wealth of existing data, including a magisterial 2006 Report by the Law Commission into homicide law, why does the Government need more reports other than to buy time? Beyond attacking Conservative governments for not building more prisons to accommodate yet more prisoners, what original ideas does the Justice Secretary actually have about how to reform the crumbling justice system? In the latest episode of Double Jeopardy, Ken and Tim take us into the history and evolution of homicide sentencing, from the disastrous 2003 Criminal Justice Act conceived by New Labour to the present calls for change, exploring how these reforms intersect with broader legal principles and questioning whether the current system strikes the right balance between deterrence, punishment, and fairness. Ken and Tim also examine the judiciary's delicate role in managing sentence inflation and resisting political interference, all while advocating for a more logical and cohesive approach to homicide law.

Bean gafa lena ceistiú maidir le dúnmharú Kyran Durnin. A woman has been arrested for questioning in relation to the murder of Kyran Durnin, the 8-year-old boy who went missing. Tá bean gafa lena ceisitú maidir le dúnmharú Kyran Durnin, an buachaill 8 mbliana d'aois a chuaig ar iarraidh. The boy was reported missing in August this year, but gardaí believe he may have been killed two years ago. Tuairiscíodh an buachaill bheith ar iarraidh mí Lúnasa i mbliana, ach creideann Gardaí gur féidir gur maraíodh dhá bhliain ó sin é. He was last seen alive in May 2022 when he was 6 years old and a pupil at a local primary school in Dundalk. Bealtaine 2022 an uair dheireanach a chonacthas beo é nuair a bhí sé 6 bhliana d'aois agus ina dhalta ag bunscoil áitiúil i nDún Dealgan. He had been living in a house in Dundalk for several years, and Gardai searched that house in October. Bhí sé ina chónaí i dteach i nDún Dealgan ar feadh roinnt blianta, agus chuardaigh Gardaí an teach sin mí Dheireadh Fómhair. The Gardai confirmed that the people who were living in the house at the time had nothing to do with the boy or anything related to him. Dhearbhaigh na Gardaí nach raibh baint ná páirt ag na daoine a bhí ina gcónaí sa teach an t-am sin leis an mbuachaill ná lenar bhain dó. It is understood that the person arrested today is a woman in her twenties, and that she is being questioned in a station in the north-east of the country, under section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act. Tuigtear gur bean sna fichidí í an té a gabhadh inniu, agus go bhfuil sí á ceistiú i stáisiún in oirthuaisceart na tíre, faoi alt 4 den Acht um an Ceartas Coiriúil. She can be questioned for 24 hours. Is féidir í a cheistiú ar feadh 24 uair. Gardai are still appealing for anyone with information about Kyran's murder to contact them, no matter how small. Tá na Gardaí fós ag iarraidh ar aon duine a bhfuil eolas acu faoi dhúnmharú Kyran, dul i dteagmháil leo, cuma cé chomh beag is atá an t-eolas sin. Tusla, the Children and Family Agency are also reviewing the case. Tá Tusla, an Ghníomhaireacht um Leanaí agus an Teaghlach i mbun athbhreithniú ar an gcás freisin.

The Fintech sector in Ireland has emerged as a major force in the global financial landscape, reshaping how financial services are delivered and consumed. Since its early days in the 2000s, driven by technological advancements in payment solutions and e-money services, Ireland has become a notable hub, boasting a Fintech adoption rate of 71%, well above the global average of 64% as of 2022. The COVID-19 pandemic further accelerated this shift, with mobile banking transactions rising by approximately 54% during that period, demonstrating a significant shift towards digital financial solutions among consumers. Prominent companies, including Stripe, Mastercard, and TransferMate, have established strong roots in the country, benefiting from a supportive regulatory framework implemented by the Central Bank of Ireland. This framework encompasses a wide array of areas, such as open banking, cryptocurrency, and crowdfunding, fostering an environment conducive to innovation and investment. By the end of 2021, Ireland was home to over 280 domestic Fintech firms and 130 international players, indicating robust growth in the sector and positioning the country as a vibrant hub for financial technology. Historical Background The journey of Fintech in Ireland can be traced back to the early 2000s when technology began to disrupt traditional financial services. Initial advancements focused on payment solutions and e-money services, laying the groundwork for subsequent growth in the sector. By the end of 2021, the payments and e-money sector experienced a 45% increase in firms and an 83% rise in transactions, highlighting a significant shift towards digital services among consumers. Key Players in the Irish Fintech Scene Ireland's Fintech ecosystem features a mix of established firms and innovative startups. Prominent companies like Stripe, Mastercard, and TransferMate have leveraged Ireland's favourable environment to grow their operations. Besides these giants, numerous startups like CurrencyFair, Payslip, and ID-Pal are making strides in specialised areas, such as foreign currency exchange, payroll management, and Know Your Customer (KYC) solutions. Regulatory bodies like the Central Bank of Ireland play a crucial role in supporting these developments, offering frameworks that cover payments, open banking, cryptocurrency, and crowdfunding. The Innovation Hub, set up by the Central Bank, has provided engagement opportunities for over 300 Fintech companies since its establishment. Regulatory Framework and Government Support The regulatory framework governing the Fintech sector in Ireland is multifaceted and operates within both national and European contexts. Key institutions involved include the Central Bank of Ireland, which serves as the primary regulator for financial services in the country. Central Bank of Ireland The Central Bank is responsible for authorising and supervising financial services providers in Ireland, ensuring compliance with prudential and conduct of business requirements. It is an integrated regulator, with its powers and responsibilities defined under the Central Bank of Ireland Act of 1942 and subsequent amendments. The Bank actively participates in EU policy development, engaging with the Department of Finance and other stakeholders to influence new EU legislation. This includes oversight of regulated entities and enforcement actions against breaches of financial services legislation. Compliance and Reporting Fintech companies categorised as "designated persons" under the Criminal Justice Act 2010 are required to adhere to Anti-Money Laundering (AML) rules. These regulations are applicable regardless of a company's authorisation status, with EU and Irish financial sanctions also relevant to all Fintech firms. The Funds Transfer Regulation further mandates payment service providers to ensure proper information accompanies fund transfers to aid in the prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing.

My guest this week is Sabrina Mei-Li Smith who lectures in Creative Writing at De Montfort University in Leicester. Sabrina has written a novel set in the mid-1990s and some of the research behind her novel is heavily connected to the themes of nostalgia and identity.  We learn about the way Sabrina examines themes of race and gender within the accepted narrative that surrounds the rise and demise of Britpop, the emergence of 1994's Criminal Justice Act, and the standardization and neutralization of alternative lifestyles.  Sabrina also has an exhibition as a work in progress, which focuses on her novel's research materials. This exhibition consists of archive materials from NME, Melody Maker, and fanzines as a method of communication before the widespread use of the internet. Sabrina talks about the hidden histories of mixed race performers and how we only tend to remember one accepted narrative, and we discuss what has changed over the decades and the fake and distorted memories from those eras, including the extent to which memory is a fallible tool. We talk about the differences between autobiographies and biographies, and the way cover songs encapsulate nostalgia. Sabrina also talks about Walter Benjamin's collection of arcades in Paris and how until 10 years ago all of the characters in her own writing were white, female and middle class. We learn the reasons for this, and then, at the end of the interview, we discuss how we might still be in the mindset of our teenage selves.

Double jeopardy is a legal principle that somebody cannot go on trial for the same crime more than once. The rule, over 800 years old, was put in place to protect the innocent against judicial misconduct that could see them convicted, even after being found not guilty. A pivotal shift occurred twenty years ago, with the UK's double jeopardy law undergoing a significant transformation through the Criminal Justice Act 2003. This introduced substantial reforms, particularly for serious crimes. The amendment allowed the possibility of retrial for someone previously acquitted, if "new and compelling" evidence surfaced…*** LISTENER CAUTION IS ADVISED *** This episode was researched and written by Emily G.

In jurisprudence, double jeopardy is a procedural defense (primarily in common law jurisdictions) that prevents an accused person from being tried again on the same (or similar) charges following an acquittal or conviction and in rare cases prosecutorial and or judge misconduct in the same jurisdiction. Double jeopardy is a common concept in criminal law. In civil law, a similar concept is that of res judicata. Variation in common law countries is the peremptory plea, which may take the specific forms of autrefois acquit ('previously acquitted') or autrefois convict ('previously convicted'). These doctrines appear to have originated in ancient Roman law, in the broader principle non bis in idem ('not twice against the same'). Availability as a legal defense. If a double-jeopardy issue is raised, evidence will be placed before the court, which will typically rule as a preliminary matter whether the plea is substantiated; if it is, the projected trial will be prevented from proceeding. In some countries certain exemptions are permitted. In Scotland a new trial can be initiated if, for example, the acquitted has made a credible admission of guilt. Part of English law for over 800 years, it was partially abolished in England, Wales and Northern Ireland by the Criminal Justice Act 2003 where, following demand for change, serious offenses may be re-tried following an acquittal if new and compelling evidence is found, and if the trial is found to be in the public's interest. In some countries, including Canada, Mexico, and the United States, the guarantee against being "twice put in jeopardy" is a constitutional right. In other countries, the protection is afforded by statute. In common law countries, a defendant may enter a peremptory plea of autrefois acquit ('previously acquitted') or autrefois convict ('previously convicted'), with the same effect. Double jeopardy is not a principle of international law. It does not apply between different countries, unless having been contractually agreed on between those countries as, for example, in the European Union (Art. 54 Schengen Convention), and in various extradition treaties between two countries. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/law-school/support

Rerun. Attending or producing raves was made illegal in Britain with the passing of the Criminal Justice Act on 3rd November, 1994. The government even legislated against electronic dance music, “wholly or predominantly characterized by the emission of a succession of repetitive beats” These unprecedented restrictions were partly in reaction to the moral panic caused after a 'free party' at Castlemorton Common attracted 30,000-40,000 attendees, and the ire of the tabloid press. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly consider the provenance of ‘revellers' in the raver's lexicon; explain why the creation of the M25 lead directly to the Act; and confess just how many illegal parties they've (inadvertently) attended…  Further Reading: • ‘The Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 becomes law' (The Guardian, 2011): https://www.theguardian.com/music/2011/jun/15/criminal-justice-public-order-act • Police clash with ravers at Castlemorton (BBC News West, 1992): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOySsljl54E • ‘Why did raves become illegal?'

This lecture looks at the development of juries in the common law world, addressing key questions about the role of juries in England and Wales today. Juries in modern English law are mainly used in criminal trials, civil trials, and coroners' inquests, and the English jury system differs from other common law jurisdictions, some of which use juries more, less, or not at all. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the jury system, and do jury trials or bench trials deliver fairer outcomes?A lecture by Professor Leslie Thomas KCThe transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website:https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/juriesGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

In the first episode of British Murders Season 5, I tell the tragic story of the ‘Babes in the Wood' murders.⁣⁣⁣⁣On October 9, 1986, a 20-year-old man named Russell Bishop sexually assaulted and strangled two 9-year-old girls named Nicola Fellows and Karen Hadaway.⁣⁣He was arrested, taken to trial and acquitted in 1987.⁣⁣⁣In 1990, Bishop went on to sexually assault a 7-year-old girl, leaving her for dead.⁣⁣⁣This time, the girl survived, and Bishop was handed a life sentence with a minimum term to serve of 14 years.⁣⁣⁣⁣Due to advances in technology and the passing of the Criminal Justice Act 2003, Bishop was retaken to trial in 2018 and found guilty of the murders of Nicola and Karen.⁣⁣He was handed two life sentences with a minimum term to serve of 36 years.⁣Follow British Murders on social media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/britishpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/britishmurdersTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@britishmurdersTwitter: https://twitter.com/britishmurdersYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BritishMurdersPodcastYou can purchase merchandise here:https://teespring.com/stores/britishmurdersYou can join the show's Patreon here:https://www.patreon.com/britishmurdersYou can make a one-off donation to support the show here:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/britishmurders All episodes are available on my website:https://www.spreaker.com/show/british-murdersYou can send your British murder case suggestions to:britishmurderspodcast@gmail.comIntro music:David John Brady - 'Throw Down the Gauntlet'https://linktr.ee/davidjohnbradymusicMy recording equipment:Shure SM7B Vocal Microphone: https://amzn.to/3F1JkkjCloud Microphone Cloudlifter CL1: https://amzn.to/2XZicC8Focusrite Scarlett Solo USB Audio Interface: https://amzn.to/3kKCLL2Rode PSA-1 Professional Studio Boom Arm: https://amzn.to/3zHJOs8Recorded using:AudacityZoomEdited in:AudacityDaVinci Resolve 17Mastered in:AuphonicYou can purchase 'The Serial Killer's Book of Haiku 2' by Rose Bundy here:https://amzn.to/3Kp7MigYou can purchase 'Babes in the Wood: Two girls murdered.

Ben Crewe, Susie Hulley and Serena Wright discuss their research on the implications of life imprisonment for young men and women. Their powerful experiences convey the deep and lasting sadness for all arising from such tragic events and the richness of their descriptions help us grasp the basic humanity of all those involved. This is quite a long podcast and may need two sittings. It is worth the listen and we found that the creative process, clearly evident in their work, was rekindled in the conversation itself. Life Imprisonment from Young Adulthood Adaptation, Identity and Time https://link.springer.com/book/10.1057/978-1-137-56601-0 When the Advisory Committee on the Penal System reported on the prison regime for long-term prisoners in conditions of maximum security in 1968, only 168 individuals were serving sentences of longer than 10 years. Today, such sentences are bordering on commonplace. England and Wales have the highest number of life-sentenced prisoners within Europe, while increasing average sentence lengths mean that more men and women are serving longer periods in custody than ever before.Such considerations are located within relevant shifts in the penal system of England and Wales, in particular, the legacy of the minimum tariffs contained within the 2003 Criminal Justice Act, the ‘up-tariffing' of ‘knife homicides' and the increasing use of joint enterprise sentencing.

The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr Abubakar Malami, have called for uniformity in the minimum standard for the implementation of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act and the Administration of Criminal Justice Laws operated by both the federal and state governments. Malami commended the Center for Socio-Legal Studies for coming up with a compelling need to lay down workable modes and opened up the avenue to receive inputs from stakeholders including local and international agencies in the evaluation process to get a document that is workable and acceptable to all. The AGF assured stakeholders of his cooperation and support in the realization of the laudable initiative.

Attending or producing raves was made illegal in Britain with the passing of the Criminal Justice Act on 3rd November, 1994. The government even legislated against electronic dance music, “wholly or predominantly characterized by the emission of a succession of repetitive beats”These unprecedented restrictions were partly in reaction to the moral panic caused after a 'free party' at Castlemorton Common attracted 30,000-40,000 attendees, and the ire of the tabloid press.In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly consider the provenance of ‘revellers' in the raver's lexicon; explain why the creation of the M25 lead directly to the Act; and confess just how many illegal parties they've (inadvertently) attended… Further Reading:• ‘The Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 becomes law' (The Guardian, 2011): https://www.theguardian.com/music/2011/jun/15/criminal-justice-public-order-act• Police clash with ravers at Castlemorton (BBC News West, 1992): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOySsljl54E• ‘Why did raves become illegal?'

NIGERIA: A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has granted bail to the 12 associates of Chief Sunday Adeyemo popularly known as Sunday Igboho.Delivering the ruling on the application filed by the 12 applicants before the court, the presiding Judge, Justice Obiora Egwuatu, said it is clear that no charge has been brought against Sunday Igboho's aides since their arrest.As such, the court held that detaining them without charging them contravenes the provisions of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act and their fundamental rights.Eight of the applicants, the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, and 11th applicants, were granted bail in the sum of N5million each with surety in like sum resident in Abuja.The remaining four applicants, the 2nd, 5th, 6th, and 12th applicants, were granted bail in the sum of N10 million each with surety in like sum also resident in Abuja.The aides were arrested when DSS officials raided Igboho's home on July 1, but a lawyer to the apprehended aides, Pelumi Olajengbesi, has sued on grounds that their fundamental human rights were being infringed on.The DSS earlier on Monday, August 2 presented eight instead of the 12 arrested aides. The DSS told the court that it believes that the four Applicants would escape from the country like Igboho, once released from detention and would not make themselves available for further investigation or trial.The court then ordered the security agency to produce all the 12 aides.In obedience to the court order, the DSS on Wednesday produced all 12 detained aides before the Federal High Court in Abuja.

Double jeopardy is a procedural defense (primarily in common law jurisdictions) that prevents an accused person from being tried again on the same (or similar) charges following an acquittal in the same jurisdiction. A variation in civil law countries is the peremptory plea, which may take the specific forms of autrefois acquit ('previously acquitted') or autrefois convict ('previously convicted'). These doctrines appear to have originated in ancient Roman law, in the broader principle non bis in idem ('not twice against the same'). Availability as a legal defense. If a double-jeopardy issue is raised, evidence will be placed before the court, which will typically rule as a preliminary matter whether the plea is substantiated; if it is, the projected trial will be prevented from proceeding. In some countries certain exemptions are permitted, such as in the United Kingdom, where in Scotland a new trial can be initiated if, for example, the acquitted has made a credible admission of guilt. Part of English law for over 800 years, it was partially abolished in England, Wales and Northern Ireland by the Criminal Justice Act 2003 where, following demand for change, serious offences may be re-tried following an acquittal if new and compelling evidence is found and for the trial to be in the public's interest. In some countries, including Canada, Mexico, and the United States, the guarantee against being "twice put in jeopardy" is a constitutional right. In other countries, the protection is afforded by statute. In common law countries, a defendant may enter a peremptory plea of autrefois acquit ('previously acquitted') or autrefois convict ('previously convicted'), with the same effect. Double jeopardy is not a principle of international law. It does not apply between different countries, unless having been contractually agreed on between those countries as, for example, in the European Union (Art. 54 Schengen Convention), and in various extradition treaties between two countries. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/law-school/support

Housepedia Podcasts #HomeIsWhereHouseIsPlaying 52 I Joe Hockman DJ Joe H started DJing in the early 90s playing at various parties in the South and South West and became a part of the Free Party People movement. These movement parties culminated into the infamous Castlemorton Festival where they all got together and partied for 2 week. This was a watershed for outside parties as the Criminal Justice Act ruled out all further events of gatherings of more than 12 people. Joe H continued playing at smaller events and then began organizing events with MMC Soundsystem and had acts such as Opus 3 performing with them. In more recent years he has played for RadioactiveFM a London based station who have been going since 91 and most recently Releaseradio for 2 years. He is now playing out a lot in Sheffield with a young knowledgeable crowd of ravers keen to dance and his Dig Deep Club nights in Derby tied in with the launch of Dig Deep Radio..Exciting times ahead.

Government Confidential Files Released Nearly Thirty Years After Acid HouseWayne Anthony deep dives the declassified Acid House files released by the National Archives in 2016. Contrary to popular belief the Tory government headed by Margaret Thatcher appear more concerned with noise pollution than health and safety. Confidential memos even state that ‘drugs are not the main issue' MP Carolyn Sinclair. This may come as a surprise to most considering all the bad press until this point. The government were also considering making ‘noise' a criminal offence with heavy penalties for the prosecuted. The declassified files outline various methods of dealing with Acid House ‘organisers', venue owners and anyone remotely connected to Acid House parties.Host: Wayne Anthony (Genesis'88 / Class of 88 Author)Watch Video: https://youtu.be/Rk6AhBhF6xgIn This Episode*   Acid House in the Press*   Government Wants to Make Noise a Criminal Offence*   Biology Jarvis Loves His Champagne*   The Gerald Coke Letter to Prime Minister - August 1989*   Increased Penalties for Promoters & Land Owners*   Flurry of Communications After Gerald Coke Letter*   MP Carolyn Sinclair Memo 1989*   Government More Concerned with Noise Than Drugs*   Police Wish They Were Called ‘Pay Parties'*   Government Surprised by Lack of Alcohol at Events*   First National Police Computer Network 1989*   Ravers Encouraged to Snitch After Being Illegal Stopped*   The Phrase Pay Parties Becomes Common*   Using Common Law Against Party Promoters*   Bring Acid House inline With Pop Concerts*   Controlling Different Genres of Music Through Licencing*   The Licencing Application Process*   Private Members Bill & Criminal Justice Act*   Inspectors with Decibel Meters Patrolling Birthday Parties*   Association of District Councils Document 1989*   Information Concerning Acid House Parties Document 1989Supporting the PodcastWe have only recently launched the video and audio podcast, which means we really need the support of our viewers and listeners.

Hey - this is subscriber's preview of an hour conversation with Martyn Goodacre - he's a Quiet legend. More short fiction from me coming soon. I'm writing about jackals of Baalbek, they're hungry to lose their fleas.You probably know Martyn Goodacre's photographs - THAT photo of Kurt Cobain, with the bleach bowl cut and the eyeliner. His pictures have graced the covers of many many magazines, and I'm lucky to have written stories in the same publications.The podcast is also available on iTunes, Spotify and many other platforms. Click here for those links. When I heard Martyn was doing an exhibition of his early photos at Das Gift in Berlin, I wanted to publish a book around it. It was his first exhibition, and also his first book. It's my first photobook. In record time (about 2 weeks), we turned around this 68 page book. It's got a velvet laminate, and feels like rubber. The photos are DOPE. You can buy it here. The book is limited to 100 editions, with a hand-printed belly band that I stayed up for a few nights making. It's laid out by Anne-Cathrin Saure, who's based in Berlin, and also laid out Cold Lips 02, and our first book, Dark Entries by Richard Cabut. The radical photobook, which is A5 landscape, is called WHOS F****N PLANET - for reasons which are explained on the podcast. The book catalogues his exploits in South London, shadowed by punk - squatting at the Fire Station on the Old Kent Road, which hosted the first London gigs for Psychic TV, Jesus & Mary Chain, and many more. He later turned his lens on horse travellers, and the New Age movement. The book features photos of Billy Bragg, Madness, and stars of the underground scene. It's a radical autobiographical photobook with the most enlightening introduction written by Goodacre. For me, this is the story of free land before the Criminal Justice Act (1994). We recorded this conversation after the opening night in Neukölln, Berlin. Pre-covid. It is edited by Sebastian Bowden.I'm going to be posting a new short story soon - so stay tuned. Stay safe. And enjoy the words.x Kirsty Allison To hear more, visit kirstyallison.substack.com

Photographer, Martyn Goodacre is perhaps best known for his iconic shots of Kurt Cobain. But in his first book publication, WHOS FUCKIN PLANET, limited to 100 editions, with a belly band lino cut by Kirsty Allison (available on www.coldlips.co.uk), he tells the story of free land before the Criminal Justice Act (1994), and how music led to him squatting the Fire Station on the Old Kent Road, which hosted early gigs for Psychic TV, Jesus & Mary Chain and many more. In this meeting in Berlin's Neukölln, following the opening of his exhibition curated by Stephanie Hamer, he and Cold Lips' editor, the writer and performer, Kirsty Allison, catch up on a few more LIFE details.

In this episode, Partner Alan Collins and Sam Barker discuss Criminal Compensation Orders (CCO) and why the courts ought to be making better use of them. Listed below are some of the key points about Criminal Compensation Orders that are brought out in this week’s episode: The court must consider making a compensation order in any case where personal injury, loss or damage has resulted from the offence. It can either be an ancillary order or, a sentence in its own right (which does not attract a victim surcharge). The court must give reasons if it decides not to order. The position is clear but this power appears to be more honoured in the breach than in the observance. The courts are not making use of the power in CSA cases, and the police who are supposed to be providing the CPS with the information are clearly not doing so in either a uniform or purposeful manner. The evidence before the International Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) in relation to the reasons why so few orders are made is somewhat contradictory if not vapid. It would have been useful to have heard from the judiciary in relation to this but, be that as it may, it is clear that orders are not being made when it is submitted as they should be. Victims are routinely asked to give consent to the release of their medical records in criminal proceedings and provide impact statements for the very purpose of assisting the court when sentencing. It is something of a paradox that victims provide this information yet the question of compensation appears at best tangential and at worst something of an inconvenience. IICSA might conclude that CSA survivors are being let down through a general lack of awareness of, and lack of purpose, behind a fundamental statutory provision which is designed specifically to help deliver justice. The courts have issued to them guidelines provided by the Sentencing Council which stipulate inter-alia that compensation should benefit the victim, not inflict further harm on them. Subject to consideration of the victim’s views, the court must order compensation wherever possible and should not have regard to the availability of other sources such as civil litigation or the Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme. Any amount paid by an offender under a compensation order will generally be deducted from a subsequent civil award or payment under the Scheme to avoid double compensation. Any financial recompense from the offender may cause distress. A victim may or may not want compensation from the offender and assumptions should not be made either way. The victim’s views are properly obtained through sensitive discussion by the police or witness care unit, when it can be explained that the offender’s ability to pay will ultimately determine whether, and how much, compensation is ordered and whether the compensation will be paid in one lump sum or by instalments. If the victim does not want compensation, this should be made known to the court and respected. Paradoxically, of course, criminal courts routinely obtain medical and in particular psychiatric reports in relation to the accused (or the offender) before sentencing, and this begs the question why more attention cannot be given to the victim? Maybe the answer lies in the fact that the defendant is legally represented whereas the victim is not and his or her voice sits in the hands of the police and CPS. The MOJ’s “Victim Strategy” document interestingly makes no reference to CCO’s. Yet it recognises the requirement for the need of the provision of impact statements. It also appears that it recognises through research that the police are not providing the information which confirms, possibly, the impression that IICSA might have formed from the evidence it has taken, that is needed for CCO’s to be made. Again, and this is paradoxical, it is said that there is a concern that if survivors are advised about the right to compensation, let alone seek it, this may enable a defence to be run on the basis that he/she is making a complaint of sexual abuse only to secure compensation. Therefore there is at best a reticence in advising survivors. Yet no evidence has been placed before IICSA to show whether cases fail because they have done so. What evidence is there that a survivor has been accused of making a false allegation (which could lead to their own prosecution of course) in anticipation of a judge making a CCO? The statutory power to make a CCO is a creature of Parliament which decided that those convicted of offences should pay compensation. Accordingly, why is it that the will of Parliament, and the rights of victims, cannot be respected?  What is there to prevent there being a statutory instrument or practice direction to prohibit such a defence from being run by the accused? It is submitted that this is a practical answer to a nonsensical problem which is distorting the thinking in some quarters on the part of those who have the responsibility to advise survivors. Through successful civil proceedings, brought by survivors against their abusers, compensation is awarded and obtained. This demonstrably demonstrates that if compensation orders were made and enforced they could be effective. Andrew Griffiths MP on 28th March 2019 presented to Parliament a bill to require the Lord Chancellor to report on the use by courts of compensation orders for child sexual abuse offences. This is the report from Hansard: I beg to move, That leave be given to bring in a Bill to require the Lord Chancellor to report on the use by courts of compensation orders for child sexual abuse offences; and for connected purposes. People come to this House for many reasons—to deliver Brexit, to fight racism, to champion social justice, to reform Parliament—but I am sure that everyone in the House, from all parties, comes here to help the victims, the vulnerable, and those with the least voice, and there can be fewer in our society more in need of our help than the victims of crime, and in particular victims of child sexual abuse. In this place, we regularly discuss the abuse that has occurred in our country. It has occupied much of our time in the Chamber. We have discussed the horrendous abuse that took place in the 1970s and in the Catholic Church and the Church of England. More recently, we have spent much time talking about the horrific and widespread abuse in towns up and down the country such as Rotherham and Bradford. The suffering of those children is indescribable and unimaginable, and it is only right that this place does all it can to reduce the possibility of such things happening again. Nobody can take away from those victims the pain that their abuse has caused, the trauma and the suffering that they have endured, not just as a child when the abuse happened but, all too often, in later life, when the trauma comes back and bubbles to the surface. We all want to do our very best in this place for those survivors. As someone who was himself a victim of child sexual abuse, I know how difficult and traumatic it is to discuss such issues. I kept my secret hidden for some 40 years. I locked it away, chained it down and hoped it would never surface. I convinced myself that if I did not give it words, I could deny it a reality. That was my view. How wrong I was! Talking about what happened to me, and explaining it to other people, was the best thing I could have done. I hope that other people who see this debate or read my testimony will think about coming forward and speaking out about their abuse and the trauma they have suffered. To talk about these things takes courage. If it took sitting in a psychiatric ward with a psychiatrist for me to be able to talk about my trauma, how much more difficult must it be for victims who find themselves in the courtroom—in that intimidating and forbidding place—who have to suffer cross-examination by a skilled and forensic barrister? All too often, they have to face the perpetrator—the person who caused them so much pain and anguish over their lifetime—across the courtroom. And yet they do it. They speak out. They find, from somewhere within, the courage to be able to do that. Surely we—Parliament, the judiciary and the police—should support them in any way we can if we are to stamp out the scourge of child abuse that we see all too often in our country. The House has mandated support for those victims. One of the objectives of the Criminal Justice Act 1982 was to increase the use of criminal compensation orders to ensure that victims of crime were compensated by right, as a norm, without the need for expensive civil litigation and the prospect of having to retell and relive the story of their abuse in the courtroom. That was consolidated in the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000. The Sentencing Council itself says: “the court must order compensation wherever possible and should not have regard to… other sources such as civil litigation or the Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme.” So if everyone agrees that survivors should receive compensation as of right, and judges have the power to award that compensation straight away, at the time of sentencing, CCOs in child sexual abuse cases should be used regularly and to good effect. Surely that is a given, is it not? Sadly, the answer is a resounding “No”. In 2017, the last year for which figures are available, there were some 6,861 convictions: 6,861 people were found guilty and sentenced for committing a child sexual abuse crime. Yet in how many of those 6,861 cases in which a CCO could have been used was one received? How many would the House suggest—50%, 25%, even 10%? The shocking reality is that just 26 people received compensation: just 0.4%. That is a criminal act. We should be ashamed that we are treating victims of child sexual abuse in that way. It is an outrage. We are letting down the survivors, and we must do something to change that. The power is there. It lies in the hands of the judges, but they are simply choosing to ignore the use of CCOs. Despite all the guidance that the Ministry of Justice has issued and all the advice that has been given to the judiciary over many years, the courts are simply ignoring it, either by design or by accident, and compensation is not being given to the people who so justly deserve it. Moreover, although the police are supposed to be providing the CPS with information at an early stage so that judges can make the necessary decisions when sentencing, that information is simply not being collated. The crazy thing is that all too often the police do collate information for the courts, but when in this instance, when there seems to be an obvious opportunity to use CCOs for a good purpose, the information is not being gathered. Evidence shows that victims are being let down through a general lack of awareness and a lack of purpose behind a fundamental statutory provision. How can it be that we are not using such a simple tool to help those victims? I am sorry to report to the Minister that the Ministry of Justice’s “Victims Strategy” document, although it is a great document—very worthy and very laudable—makes no reference to the use of CCOs. My Bill asks the Government to report routinely to Parliament on the use of CCOs in child sexual abuse cases. Let me quote a well-known phrase that my dad used to use: “What gets measured gets done”. I firmly believe that such reporting, if adopted by the Government—in association with other simple and straightforward methods—will stimulate the judiciary to secure for the victims the compensation scheme that they deserve. I thank all the Members who have supported the Bill so far, particularly my hon. Friends the Members for Lewes (Maria Caulfield) and for Congleton (Fiona Bruce), the hon. Members for Rotherham (Sarah Champion) and for Batley and Spen (Tracy Brabin), and my hon. Friend the Member for Truro and Falmouth (Sarah Newton), all of whom have been hugely helpful, as has Alan Collins of Hugh James, the solicitors, whom I also thank. However, there must be more that we can do to help those victims. It is in the Minister’s hands. Victims of child sexual abuse deserve better, and we can deliver it. I ask the House please to accept the Bill. Question put and agreed to. Ordered, In our experience offenders often have the ability to pay meaningful compensation. Through civil proceedings, we have recently recovered for clients – survivors – compensation in excess of £100,000 which has and does enable them to rebuild their lives.

Our extern, Brittany, interviews AFPD David Bungard to get a feel for what it's like to practice federal criminal defense for the indigent charged with federal crimes.  David discusses the differences between private and public practice, his experience as a Criminal Justice Act panel attorney, what drew him to defense work, and what day-to-day life is like working in the office of the Federal Public Defender for the Southern District of West Virginia.

In 2008 the UK was saved from having a new blasphemy law imposed when former Home Secretary David Waddington successfully persuaded the House of Lords to include a clause in the Criminal Justice Act that was to become known as the Waddington amendment.

Docherty was convicted in a criminal trial and was considered to be a 'dangerous offender'. He was sentenced to imprisonment for public protection (IPP) under the old sentencing regime of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 but argued he should have been sentenced under the new regime to an extended determinate sentence (EDS) under the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012. In this podcast we explore the decision by the Supreme Court as well as the implications for criminal and social justice. Music from bensound.com
