What an illuminating insight into the « Solomonesque » judgment by Mr Justice Chamberlain (did one of his forebears hold a courtly function?). Thank you for this perfectly formed analytical "gobbet" and for helpfully – with the necessary caveat in my case – pointing your readers to Prof. Elliot’s exegesis of the case. By the end of my exploration of the subject, I had been "won over" by the arguments deployed. Whilst it would be wonderful if our print and broadcast media were able to produce this sort of insightful analysis for a wider audience, at least I know that I shall have my eyes opened on a regular basis by your posts!
Thank you, Joshua. Frankly, I need the time to be sure of the rationale behind the Court’s ruling and I have often enough read analyses less esoteric than Professor Elliott’s in the excerpt you include.Whilst I believe that this may be a familiar enough instance of my heart at odds with my head, I anguish as anguish I believe we always should about the welfare of this - of course- deeply flawed and troubled fellow creature, whatever the challenges he may continue to pose for any responsible authority of any relevant nation.

Very kind of you to say so. There's also nearly five years of archive posts for you to explore.
