Uninterrupted Morris Dancing rights beaten by an A1P1 claim? – UK Human Rights Blog
“Retrospective legislation often gives rise to claims under Article 1 Protocol 1 of the Convention – you may have some legal advantage (whether it be property or a legal claim) which you then find yourselves losing as a result of the change of law. I have posted on some of these, the ban of the pub fag machine, or the change in the law that meant insurers had to pay compensation for pleural plaques caused by asbestos. These A1P1 cases are not easy to win, not least because the courts are wary in thwarting legislative changes via one of the less fundamental and most qualified rights in the Convention locker.”

Managing Major Change: Employment and Corporate Governance – Cloisters
“National governments impose obligations on local government. Electors have needs and preferences to be met. Politicians have aspirations to achieve. None of this will happen without the worker – bees of local government – from chief executive to road sweeper – willingly putting their shoulder to the wheel or hand to the broom. So good human resource management is what makes things happen well.”

FoI act has ‘hamstrung’ government – The Guardian
“The Freedom of Information act is a mistake, and is having a negative effect on governing, Britain’s top civil servant said. Sir Gus O’Donnell told the Commons public administration select committee that it had stymied full and frank discussion of options by ministers and others in government. The 2001 act gives members of the public and journalists the right to ask for publication of official documents.”
