Dear oh Dear This RBS/Mind in Croydon Pension Saga is really dragging on.

Addressing a meeting of New Labour activists in Bristol the Prime Minister, Gordon Brown said;

"We are exploring all the legal action necessary to recover pension payments from people who received too much". For that reason I think it is important to define exactly what legal powers Gordon Brown has at his disposal.



Above and beyond the offenses committed as part of the Bristol Abuse Case (BAC) Mind in Croydon and Croydon Council stand accused of a separate charge of attempting to carry out a scientific experiment carrying a statistically significant risk of death without the consent of the test subjects. This is an offense under the Nuremberg code which was ratified internationally in 1945 and accepted into UK law shortly afterwards. As an aspect of international law this code supersedes any and all domestic UK law meaning that the UK government may pass no law which contravenes this code or attempts to protect an offender from prosecution. For example a UK court would have no power to say that an offender cannot be imprisoned, executed or have their assets siezed on conviction. Case law of how to go about prosecuting a so called Nuremberg offence is a little thin on the ground because since the fall of the Nazi Reich nobody else has been stupid enough to commit the offence meaning the only legal framework we have to try the Croydon accused are the Nuremberg trials themselves. This framework allows for the convening of a special tribunal at which the burden of proof, the rights of the accused and the sentence that may be passed are defined at the discretion of the trial judge. In short there is legally very little you cannot do to a Nuremberg offender.

Further more it has been successfully argued that Nuremberg offences are so severe that any state actor committing them is carrying out an act of war. As such they forfeit any recourse under civilian law and can only be protected by the laws of war. Unless the Croydon accused were displaying appropriate military signage at the time the offence was committed then they have to be considered as being engaged in clandestine operations or espionage and as such have no protection under even the laws of war. Therefore the only limit to the punishment they can receive is the imagination of the person administering that punishment. So when I say I have the right to see the Croydon accused crucified and then have their rotting corpses hung out as a warning to others I am referring to a legal right.

Suddenly being asked to pay a small fine in instalments looks like the best plea bargain in the history of plea bargains.
