Its hard not to sympathise with Andrew Malkinson's call for the Criminal Cases Review Commission to be wound up (and presumably replaced with a different method of reviewing cases).... but the Q. is: would another organisation be any better, or cn the current CCRC be reformed (or re-staffed) to avoid the problem presented by Malkinson's case? Not an easy Q. but one that needs to be resolved!

In response to this post @BigAngBlack "Encourage free schools, and resolve that not one dollar of money shall be appropriated to the support of any sectarian school. Resolve that neither the state nor nation, or both combined, shall support institutions of learning other than those sufficient to afford every child growing up in the land the opportunity of a good common school education, unmixed with sectarian, Pagan, or Atheistical tenets. Leave the matter of religion to the family altar, the church, and the private school, supported entirely by private contributions. Keep the church and the state forever separate." — Ulysses S. Grant, Speech to the Society of the Army of Tennessee (1875) — #RuleOfLaw #DefendTheConstitution #EducationMatters #SeparationOfChurchAndState #BanTheGOP #Insurrection #Rebellion #Confedereds

Wow! The International Criminal Court today made public it has *issued two arrest warrants* against Russian presidential dictatorial war-aggressor *Vladimir Putin* & his "Commissioner for children's rights" in Putin's office, *Maria Lvova-Belova*, for war crimes involving the criminal deportation & transfer of children to Russia.

The first and most obvious thing is not to have a Chair of the Criminal Cases Review Commission who is also involved in the appointment and promotion process for judges - many of whose decisions the Commission may have to review. . Really basic governance!. And better resourcing would help - and even save money elsewhere!
