16.          Need for a Mismanagement Act as an umbrella act for all discrimination and human rights abuses.  Import Fifa methodology from Swiss.

17.          Soldiers re Iraq - intelligence issue: I perceive it would be unjust to process the 1500 soldier cases prior to processing my request for Parliamentary Sovereignty and Public Inquiry which went in under Danny Alexander ex-MP and also Drew Hendry MP who has failed to respond to any correspondence via www.writetothem.com - why?

The legal issues:

The legal doctrine of Equity requires:

1. First in time prevails;

2. In the interests of justice.

I have:

1 Parliamentary Sovereignty request and public inquiry request on my 3 litigation cases in the English courts over a 20 year period plus my research on the Woolf Reforms via Birbeck College, London as well as intelligence issues concerning an American lawyer David Shapiro – Bill Clinton as I believe the Iraq War is a decoy war as the invasion occurred to the UK/European judicial systems which are substantively undermined in the public domain via a Japanese concept (Alternative

Dispute Resolution) processed by Jews-Scots-Americans, a Jewish plot and "enemy within". My practical to the theory via my dissertation is the case LDM v Masons and Professor Richard Susskind OBE, the IT Adviser to the Lord Chief Justice who is a British spy and substantively corrupt and involved in organised crime via the Masons and subsequent S J Berwin & Co cases x 2 and is perceived to be operational in Inverness area at the moment and up to no good.

2. Regulation request to impact in the whole of the EU public domain institutions especially the judicial and legal systems re my research on Woolf etc.

3. Request for an Appeal of my last cases before Sir Robert Owen QC who was substantially corrupt and it is perceived Dr Lindsay Farmer is operational behind the scenes. This judge is also responsible for the recent Russian poisoning case and the Russians affirm he is not up to standard too.

Intelligence issue.

These cases must be processed first in time, as they establish an "invasion" which knocked over the judiciary and enabled "compromise" of legal rights, thereby lowering standards in society.  The issue is that Justice was dispensed with via “Access to Justice” which processed mediation as access to justice when it is actually access from justice and access to compromise – not the same thing and is fraudulent misrepresentation.

My perception is that there is secondly a need to process Tony Blair ex-PM as the second issue as misconduct in public office. The reason being is that the war is deemed "unjust", therefore it is necessary to process the PM first to establish the facts prior to processing 1500 soldiers who must be deemed to be "ordered" to act or are on a frolic of their own. In order to be seen as a professional and elite force, they must be processed because this war IS deemed "UNJUST". Malcolm Kendell Smith, a conscientious objector, also needs to be pardoned or recognised for his bravery and resoluteness in some way.

Also soldiers should not be going bankrupt with lawyers chasing the cases. It is necessary to hear the cases due to article 6 of the Human Rights Act and a right to a fair trial - some will be found to be

professional and elite and some won't but we need to deal with these cases legally due to the need for the historical record and need to be preventative in future. Concerning soldiers they should be covered by insurance per se or via public liability insurance or some form of insurance dealing with risk as soldiers - they should not be going bankrupt - why is this an issue.

Class actions might be a way forward - soldiers take orders - need to be visible as issue "Unjust".

Military are also trained to be elite and professional in UK as public force therefore issue of ethics and morals which requires jurisprudence. Also accountable, responsible and transparent if

"ordered", otherwise misconduct in public office may apply. Military are a "public" fighting force in UK - not mercenaries (private armies).

Soldiers should not be processed by the Courts first, need for my issues to be dealt with as "intelligence" and thereafter Blair – see blog - discuss direct not covertly.

18           If you are a UK citizen of Europe and living on benefits in the UK, you can actually go to a Member State in Europe to live for up to 5 weeks and still claim benefits in the UK including keeping your housing benefit.  If the above premis is correct concerning the UK benefit system then, I believe the policy should be extended in two ways:  (a) that it should be possible for any EU citizen to move to any Member State from their host Member State for a period of up to 6 months for the purpose of looking for or seeking work in their destination Member State.  (b) But that the host Member State should pay the welfare benefits of the EU citizen to the destination Member State for the duration of upto 6 months and thereafter if no work paid or unpaid is achieved the destination Member State should be able to send the person back to their host Member State.

That is to say, if an EU citizen of the UK wants to live and work in Spain they can rely on the UK to pay their benefits whilst they live in Spain seeking work for upto 6 months and if they fail to achieve work, Spain can send them back to the UK and/or place them on their own benefits structure in Spain.   Likewise if a German wants to work in the UK, Germany should pay for the EU Citizen to stay in the UK whilst Germany pays the benefits for up to 6 months and should they fail to locate work paid or unpaid, then they be returned by the UK to Germany or retained on the UK benefits system.

The small change / improvement to the European benefits system would mean that everyone could move around as per the spirit and letter of the free movement policy of the EU, but that the problems associated with doing so would be restricted via the host Member State for upto 6 months and thereafter a decision would be made by the destination Member State.        

19.1        Just read the article in the Sunday Mail 14/2/16 entitled "SNP ready to put us all in the red - Nation in debt for the first time in 300 years".

The article informs that by 24/2/16 John Swinney's 2016/17 Budget intends to borrow substantial sums of money from the UK National Government's Loan Fund, and possibly from commercial banking or issue its own bonds. The sum highlighted in the article is £316 million comprising £263 million in health capital projects; an extra £97 million in housing and an extra £50 million on infrastructure projects. DONT BORROW A PENNY - Tighten your belts instead

How - try these - and at least do the paper exercise and publish results of any stats/evaluation:

19.2.      All private rented accommodation in every local authority (believed to be 32), put on a local authority property register in order to be rented privately. (a) all property be rent assessed - PER PROPERTY, not Per Person - ie if four people living in house and the rent is £1000 a month - 4 x £250 not 4 x £1000, ie unjust enrichment of £3000 - this would particularly assist HMO property and be anti-poverty and students. Homeless should not be placed in substandard housing and pay luxury rents from housing benefit - if you pay a luxury rent you should live in a luxury apartment  (b) Scrap all management fees with the exceptions of properties with lifts and/or concierge services. (c) property assess each property to bring the property up to a given standard prior to rental (i) safety - fire checked with fire doors, alarms and exit strategies; (ii) wind and water tight - roofs and windows: salvage and recycling, end of line, sales and new all acceptable; (iii) rewired and replumbed especially beneficial for older properties which may even still have lead piping - possibly grants available; (iv) hygenic - kitchens and bathrooms; and (v) external spaces maintenance, heating and furnishings if furnished. (d) Contracts - Landlord-Local Authority and Landlord - Tenant - with the scrapping of potential management fees wording should be expressly placed in tenants agreement to maintain the property and external spaces - ie grass cutting and lightbulb changing.

19.3.      By lowering the private rental costs for tenants - this will have a significant effect. Firstly the tenants will have more of their income available to spend in the local economy - as currently private rents are probably on the too high side. They are likely to do things like SPEND - on cars, hobbies, lifestyle choices - eating out, clothes, having kids, getting married, holidays, furnishing (especially if the Landlord upgrades the property!!). This is VAT, Corporate Tax, Tax on Intangibles to the Treasury.  It is also jobs.

19.4.      By upgrading the housing stock, especially where the property is substandard - will have an impact on health and wellbeing – is anti-poverty and means that rents are affordable and reasonably priced.   There is a serious issue of "unjust enrichment" concerning current housing policy in the private rented sector in relation to Landlords.   Social Policy should be focus on the many not the few - or Movement for Improvement!

19.5.1    By lowering the rents and doing a carrot and stick to upgrading housing stock in the private rental market where folks are on housing benefit via welfare reforms - this would have a significant impact on the deficit and also on the local authority budget.

19.5.2    It would be possible to take a two tier approach to this issue concerning the public sector housing - those folks who are working could pay a market rent for their council or housing association property, whilst having a base level of rent for people on welfare benefits and working poor - this would assist local authorities who need certainty in their budgets and forecasts - so a base level plus market rent for public housing would be competitive with the private rental market and be seen to be fair. ie a one bedroom property is currently £500 as a private market rent; a public rent of a similar 1 bedroom property is £300 pm. This should be two tier - £300 if welfare and £500 if the person is working above the level of that deemed working poor in the public sector. Ie both Private and Public rents should be the same where people are working and if below a certain level the working poor in private rented property should get assistance as they currently do. This small change would facilitate more funds to the local authority for infrastructure projects such as dualling the A9.

(a) If you earn above the poverty threshold (which the Joseph Rowantree Foundation calculator says is approx £17,500) so say £20,000 then you should have to pay market rent for your home if in public ownership.

(b) If you earn below the poverty threshold or are on welfare benefits you should have to pay rent at a basic level set by the Council or Housing Association on a per house basis, not individual rent.


Unjust enrichment needs to be back in the limelight as a Government policy and loopholes closed as a consequence of it or new policies created.  Unjust enrichment is a legal term of art.

19.6.      If the Landlords are upgrading their properties in order to rent their properties this would provide local jobs via labouring, trades and supplies which would attract PAYE or Self Employed Tax; VAT; Corporate Tax and Tax on Intangibles.

19.7.      By freeing up money at Local Authority level this could assist jobs in the public sector via the Council and Third Sector funding and thereby provide PAYE with folks spending and VAT, Corporate Tax and Tax on intangibles. Education policy and nursery places etc.

19.8.      Concerning 6 above other local authority issues could facilitate the Landlord such as amenities, better parks, streetlighting, roads and potholes, drainage, gritting etc. Schools and Youth facilities could ensure somewhere to go, computers, library books etc. Nursery places etc.

19.9.      By the Local Authority doing "best value or best quality" any infrastructure projects such as dualling the A9 could be budgeted for without borrowing against the capital sum. Health projects could be better focused to issues that are necessary especially if Council services have funds - such as integrated care packages for older people who need more than 15 minute/30 minute visits, facilitate hospital discharge by upgrading or offering downsizing or swaps - ie no home with an upstairs should have a Stena Lift - this goes against disability issues because if the power is cut the person would effectively be trapped upstairs or downstairs. If you need a Stena lift then you need to downsize or swap or move house to something more appropriate if you cannot live on the ground floor of your home effectively, ie bedroom and toilet. If you cannot access the top floor of your house due to disability (then you don't need the house) then the Council should at least offer a swap option, a new house with concierge facility potential designed around the disability. This policy alone would facilitate many families moving in the area and would also mean that you may not need to build 50,000 new houses – you may just need to build smaller ground level housing to accommodate people who are disabled and need to downsize, possibly releasing funds to themselves to enable a better quality of life and/or to their families to assist them.

19.10.    There is an issue in the Press and also raised by me as a late response to the SNAP consultation via the SHRC - discrimination in housing. I dont know if this has been stopped but two years into SNAP it should have been: advertising "no DSS"; "No pets"; "No smokers" - this is discrimination. All a landlord should require is the rent and for it to be paid on time with minimum disruption to the property.  Therefore to have a DSS tenant is the best option you can get as your rent is guaranteed and always on time. A 1 bedroom private rent flat with a DSS tenant is approx £500 which is £3000 on a 6 month tenancy  and £6000 per year and £30,000 over 5 years. DSS tenants tend to stay put hence they are the best option. As such, if they smoke or have pets - so what. If the carpet gets soiled or the walls go yellow – as Landlord you are supposed to maintain the property - so a lick of paint or a new carpet is not going to break the bank if you are getting between £3000 and £30,000 over a five year period and you upgrade one during that time - it is something you should be doing anyway. If there is rent assessment - this issue could be stopped as well as notifying the Press that it is not acceptable to publish obviously discriminatory/prejudicial or biased information.

19.11.    Currently you can rent 1 room of a house you live in up to a value of £4000 + without incurring tax. This could be stopped and all rental property whether solely let or HMO or a person rents out a room in their own home could be taxed. There is negligible difference to letting out a 1 bedroom property at £4000+ a year and letting out a room in your house for the same sum - so why make a tax difference: if you let out 2 rooms you have to pay tax on both rooms!

19.12.    Elderly people may be "invisible" in their communities. My Social Policy on this sourcing from knowledge of what is occurring in England is that they have gone down the route of Ready Meals which they say assists older people who can decide when to eat at their convenience rather than being made to eat at given times. Whilst this may be a favourable issue, there is also the downside that older people are receiving a visit once a week delivering all their ready meals which are frozen, rather than every day, are given a microwave and told to reheat their food. Which may not be the most nourishing and nutritious as there dinner is processed food. As such, they may be "invisible" to their communities. The Ready Meals service may actually be expensive too. My social policy issue which I would like you to give consideration to is that older people should be visible to their communities especially in rural areas and that they should have at least one meal with the kids in the school canteen at the nearest school. They could be mini-bused in, the food is prepared in the

canteen and is nutritious and fresh, there is choice, and the dinnertime would be shared with youngsters or youth thereby ensuring they are "visible" and not isolated x 5 days a week and that any issues associated with them are picked up quickly. The kids and the older people would probably enjoy the experience and the kids could pick up on valuable knowledge sources. The older people could also assist with history projects, reading, storytelling, lifestyle advice - knitting, cooking, sewing, sports, policing, journalism, scientists/academia, army careers etc as they have their own inherent skills and could effect reciprocity and if married to children or youth could assist history projects for the elderly per se - telling their wartime experiences, careers, what it was like in the 50s, music and musical instruments etc or even just being helped by the kids re computers and mobil phones, apps etc.

If school time is going to be cut in Highland, then Friday afternoons could switch to elderly time with kids/youth with both benefitting!  The kids would be safe and the elderly would be engaged and not isolated.  Reciprocity.

19.13.    Maybe all we need to do is focus on the many not the few and tighten our belts a little. You may already have seen my social policy on Prisons - Judges need to be responsible for the public purse, which can deprive local authorities and governments of public funds if not processed correctly in the 21st Century. Non-violent prisoners should not go to jail in a 21st century system: they should be (a) fined PLUS (b) do community payback as punishment plus (c) be asset stripped under the proceeds of crime act for unjust enrichment. We are still in an 18th century model of crime and punishment.

Concerning (b) and (c) above - volunteering could facilitate drivers of mini buses and food preparation in school canteens or elderly projects.  The later could facilitate elderly projects and also the purchase of mini-buses which could benefit the whole school etc. from Community Cashback schemes where money comes from the proceeds of crime and is redistributed via the Third Sector.

19.14.    In some public services its not about investing money into capital projects, what is needed is those who are salaried learning to work in 21st century ways and with a more professional and ethical approach.   Autonomy is necessary as my experience recently is that the services are so poor and shoddy whilst buildings are good to facilitate that the service leaves the service open to professional negligence and criminal negligence law suits - which would defeat the purpose of investment in the capital sum. It is possible to raise the standards without incurring any costs by simply ensuring that the employees are trained internally to an appropriate level and there is sufficient evaluation and monitoring of the service. Eg People are processed through mental health services and the Act requires “Care and Treatment”*.  There is over emphasis on Treatment.  Care is not picking up on “poverty” issues such as employability and whether the person is on contractual or statutory sick pay.  If either then “reasonable adjustment” under the Disability Discrimination Act should mean that an insurance policy kicks in with the employer which assesses risk so that the employee can either have a reasonable adjustment to return to work or be laid off with compensation.  This tends not to be happening.  Obvious poverty is also not being picked up such as ill-fitting clothes perhaps due to weight gain or weight loss – there is an endowments fund associated with all hospitals and they should be picking up obvious poverty issues as “unmet need” issues.   Under “Care” issues of people not fitting into the 21^st century also need to be picked up when being processed by a mental health hospital.  You should not be able to spend 28 days on a mental health ward in hospital without coming out the other end having sorted out causation ad lifestyle issues concerning 21^st century living but that currently is the case.  Nurses should be able to give powerpoint demonstrations on a range of topics to ensure people have knowledge that they need so as to not go round and round mental health services.  Further there is a reliance on agency, the worker, and this can cost more than the worth of an employee unnecessarily - an employee "float" may be a better option than an agency worker on the premis that Agency don't tend to provide training for their staff whereas employees access training when the employer determines its necessary. You can therefore have differing degrees of skills and training in the workforce which can highlight issues of professional negligence where there is a duty to act and there is an omittance to do the duty. What I have observed recently is that an entire hospital ward is wide open to ambulance chasing from the legal profession and that the staff are needing skills to be upgraded as they are either non-existent or not being used if they are actually available, there is no opportunity to forward think or raise standards and there is no significant evaluation or monitoring to ensure that upgrading is occurring - the service delivery in over a month's observance of an NHS hospital was either woeful or damning with a few exceptions. Further there is opportunity for volunteering to have a significant impact to make a difference - but there is no opportunity for the Third Sector to engage with the public sector to network and to facilitate involvement other than to provide some leaflets which may or may not be taken on board. In that regard, there is an endowment option with a capital sum which should provide interest to be spent for the benefit of patients and staff - how or whether this is occurring is not known but it should be being processed properly and apparently is not at this time.   Borrowing to improve as a capital investment is therefore not necessary: what is necessary is to evaluate and monitor and utilise the employees more appropriately with autonomy and to network the Third Sector to facilitate involvement possibly paid for out of endowments. Employees are salaried not paid by the hour via consultancy – therefore they can be asked to work more efficiently, effectively and economically and shown how to engage better within their organisation to include creativity and ideas. Mismanagement is an employment area needing to be identified by legislation and the need to refer to the Trade Union or Professional Body to ensure that professionalism and ethics are of a high standard. The other area needing to be identified for improvement in employment legislation is to ensure that employees; workers and non-employees (volunteers) are appropriately covered by all legislation. Human Rights legislation needs to impact across all public sector legislation and the Law Society needs to network certain areas of law together ie Employment/Human Rights/Mental Health/Insurance as there are serious gaps which render legislation in operative and will lead to professional negligence lawsuits and/or criminal prosecution.  So in conclusion - please do a stats / evaluation on the policy ideas above to see if an effective, efficient and economic benefit would be made that was significant to enable the envisaged £316 million infrastructure projects to be done without actually borrowing anything from the UK Government Loan Fund or commercial banking entities or Bonds etc. We may just need to think smarter and tighten our belts rather than borrow and get into debt for the first time in 300 years: the Scots are known to be thrifty, have mothballs in their wallets, the above should make significant cost savings and if so may facilitate all projects without the need to borrow and even improve society ...

19.15     Networking Citizen Advice Bureau with the Local Volunteer Service, a Foodbank service, the local Community Payback Team and a not-for-profit café in the same building at ground floor level would benefit many.  On the DLA form there is a box (or used to be a box) what are your hobbies and interests.  Many people who need DLA say things like I cannot do my hobby anymore because of my upper limb, lower limb, eyesight, concentration levels etc.  These people need to be networked to the local volunteer service for assistance to do their hobby or interest or do something else.  Some may want to volunteer too.  Befriending etc.  Networking these services in the same building, in a central location on ground floor level would benefit many and network the services in the local authority area at Third Sector level.  There needs to be greater networking of Third Sector services and would also assist anti-social behaviour and loitering as people would have places to go and feel valued as volunteering has an altruistic affect as well as assisting employability – see lacuna on the welfare reforms above.

20.  The Genome Project should replace Nato and be about “uniting” peoples where they have been dispersed.  Nato is about a “perception” of collective security – it has had its time and place and needs to be scrapped.  A Justice system is a frontline defence system and catches “enemies within”.  Justice needs to be restored as it was undermined by the Clinton administration who brought alternative dispute resolution – a Japanese concept – into global judicial systems and thereby undermined the rule of law and Justice.  Justice needs to be restored to create safe and just society.
