Exclusive: I Can Reveal the Legal Advice on Drone Strikes, and How the UK Establishment Works

[Michael Barwell]

.....in case I am found suddenly to have decided to commit suicide or have a heart attack on a mountain.............block with electronic exterior doors, CCTV and 24 hour concierge/security...... found very distinct muddy footprints .

Verry familiar and I'd echo that first bit.
When I fed the strays in NuT, i'd sometimes give it a shuffle on the doormat to clean my shoes in the clean block hall; one time, being in a good mood, I gave it a bit of a flounce; I was aware of the cameras, 'course. Next day (night), the trail of mud was really daft, a total pisstake on the cleaners/block monitors, completely OTT and obviously deliberate, I thought.
Not long after that, 'they' started entering my flat when I was feeding the cats, not just then, it was a standard Zersetzung-thing, wholistic, but the cat-feeding time was clearly a specific; it became a bit of a stresser & the obvious is to either not feed the cat, chuck it out the window, or do it quickly. I chose the latter and kept to it, 'til I thought "sod this" and pretty much did it as I pleased (-the psyche attack thing is fairly obvious/logical, I pretty much saw it for what it was being). The doors were stupid modern robots and had already shut half-way in my face a few times, or were slow to open, or needed prompting a couple of times. A couple of times after feeding the cats, the doors refused to open, or did so very slowly, the point being to play on the "there's someone in my flat, nicking that half doob from the ashtray again", erm, anxiety I guess, seeing as it's recently been added to the list of automatic reference terms.


I noticed a couple of things about the UK attorney general in the Indie, & apparently he isn't very well known, in the legal 'community' -
　
"Jeremy Wright QC: The man who advised David Cameron on the legality of Syria drone strikes
Thursday 10 September 2015
When David Cameron announced that he had consulted the Attorney General prior to his decision to authorise the killing of Reyaad Khan, it may have sounded as if he had sought independent legal advice.
But though Jeremy Wright QC, who has been Attorney General since July 2014, is a trained lawyer, he is not independent, in the political sense. He is a Conservative MP, who is understandably proud that in the 2005 general election, which Labour won, he stood in a Labour-held seat, Rugby and Kenilworth, and took it for the Tories.
Wright studied at the Inns of Court School of Law and was called to the bar in 1996, specialising in criminal law, mostly in the Midlands.

In Parliament, his career path was that of a loyal party man with an eye on promotion. He was a Tory whip from 2007 to 2012, then a junior minister in the Justice Department, in charge of prisons. Before he entered the Government, he set up and chaired a parliamentary committee on dementia.
When he was appointed to replace Dominic Grieve as Attorney General last year, the Legal Cheek gossip website ran an article titled "Just who is Jeremy Wright?", pointing out that many in legal circles had never heard of him.
Though he has the title QC, this was not in recognition of his work as barrister, but was bestowed by royal prerogative when he was appointed Attorney General.
After giving David Cameron loyal support for 10 years, he was unlikely to want to cross the Prime Minister on a matter literally of life or death."
