      People now know WHY Blair removed the Death Penalty for TREASON once he became Prime Minister

    • @englishconstitutionparty8351

      David conflates a political constitution with a legal constitution. There is separation of powers in a legal constitution. What Blair did with the constitutional reform act 2005 was much deeper than the appearance of separation of powers. He recreated the star chamber (politburo) by stealth. David misses (understandably in a 20m video) many elements of constitutional treason. Namely the repeals of section 2 and 3 of the English Bill of Rights 1688. The English Bill of Rights 1688 are incorporeal rights and the Bill of Rights was a trust document that could NEVER be repealed or any part of it, every repeal including section 3 in 1870 and parts of section 2 in 1948 were treason and subverting the English constitution. I am a conservative. NOT a unionist. I am a legal constitutionalist. We are heading for a full scale civil war in England and mostly due to the treason committed by academics (I not referring to David), politicians and MSM .
      "Sir John Laws is noted for his extrajudicial writings in the journal, Public Law. His most notable contribution, "Law and Democracy", asserts that the constitution would be undemocratic if it gave all the power under it to the elected government. Therefore, it is the constitution, and not Parliament, that should be sovereign in the British [English] constitution. "
      Parliament is restrained by the common law constitution. It cannot legislate against the will of the people or the constitution it cannot enact repugnant law, if it does, it shall be judged null and void. The Crown (executive) can step in and or the law lords, Ashby vs White 1703 is a good educational case, the actual judgment not the nonsense you read from British Marxist academics on line, the archives are key to real history. The separation of powers is what Blair erased in 2005 and others by stealth, gradualism, the Fabian way.
      I have asked David to come on my show on Rumble, the full English show. Banned on RUclips, Facebook, Twitter all my old accounts gone. I was banned on paypal years ago. No one said a word in my defence. I am a normal working man with a passion for constitutional law and constitutional legal history, the snobs in politics don't like me, they will lose and possibly more than there salaries when we take back control. IGNORANCE is no defence in law, especially to treason.
      Marxists took control of our institutions a long time ago. Well before the name existed, the idea existed.

      Our history is a joke or it's largely missing, were still called foreigners on our own land and the history books and museums have a certain narrative. They still parade our ancient local traditions down the church isle and pretend to worship the virgin Mary and her donkey using a horses skull. Solstice magically turning into Jesuses birthday.....none of the local Roman ruins look Roman at all! The same nasty trick has now been turned on the English and those who they govern. They wont see how this rainbow religion turns the tables, because their history is all written in aid of this mentality. The only thing worse than a tyrant is the git who wants to replace him. So I hope the English do take back what is theirs because this new bunch of gits seeking power over us is suffocating.

      David Starkey is a right-wing wanker. It wasn't Labour that tried to suspend parliament, and it wasn't them that made their party members the only ones who have a say over the govt. It's the repeated appointment of PMs from within the Tory party, without elections, that has strained the constitution to breaking point.

      @@SzTz100 Utter tosh. I come from an era where ALL tradesmen were time served apprentices for years. Those men had pride in their work and were skilled to a standard which was far superior to anything you will see on any industrial site today. Not a "degree" in sight. Take a long look at older or even ancient buildings and you will see evidence of these skills, buildings which were built by hand from raw materials, not off the back of a lorry as you will see nowadays. Modern buildings which will be past there useful lives in forty years if you're lucky. A "degree" means nothing today and in fact in my experience "degree" holders usually haven't a clue in practical terms. We are now in an era where this country's manufacturing skills base has been systematically destroyed by successive pathetic governments. "Made in China" used to be synonymous with "crap" or just plain downright substandard and often dangerous and British Standard was world renowned. Learn on the job from craftsmen was not "crap".

      @SzTz100 I work within the Building Services sector. Tradesmen / women complete apprenticeships, which involves studying at college. They don't just learn on the job. Apprenticeships were pushed aside under New Labour, Tony Blair encouraged everyone like myself to go to university. Most obtained useless degrees. We now have major skill gaps within electrical and mechanical because not enough people took the apprenticeship route. I have been recruiting in this sector directly for Contractors for 20 years. I know what I am talking about. Graduate Engineers tend to work in design or project engineering for consultancies or main contractors.

      One of the most consistent actions taken by all parliaments is to 'never' overturn laws or abolish taxation policies. They just never do it, unless it is subsumed into a new law. Tony Blair created the Supreme Court in 2005 precisely for the purpose of anchoring his legacy. It is another impediment for a Parliament intent on reversing the laws that were enacted.

      Yes you are so right, never thought I would condone the thought of a revolution or a civil war, but Starkey speaks the absolute truth and total common sense , because in all ways Bliar had been instrumental in allowing this country to become invaded. We are now seeing, disregard for our laws, culture, heritage and way of life by incoming migrants who, as they are now doing, i.e. flexing their muscles will use violence against us to get their way. Plus as shown by Gad Saad, in his book including "The Parasitic Mind: How Infectious Ideas Are Killing Common Sense" that left-wing liberals have covertly taking over all our organisations i.e. schools (which I once taught in), police, the law etc, continue for minorities to enforce their ways on us i.e. Woke, LBQT and trans.

Scotland operating under its own Constitution and England doing the same. This situation remains today. Scotland runs under is own (Roman) Legal System and Constitution whilst England has English Common Law, along with the English Constitution. There is no such thing as a British Constitution nor a common legal system. This is why the British Government has been actively hiding our Constitutions and has made a number of illegal attempts to nullify the English Constitution. This is also why the English Constitution is not taught in our schools any more, nor the Police, Solicitors and the Judiciary tested on their knowledge of it! The UK is just a political union, like the EU and the now defunct USSR.

      @@grahamdhv3812 Tory Brexit? Well, what we have got is BRINO. (Brexit in name only). Is that what you mean by Tory Brexit? The true Brexit is what N Farage pushed for with UKIP, and why the Tories made out they supported it. I do agree that there are genuine Tory Brexiteers. Thank God for them.
