‘The Respondent was ordered to be extradited to Greece for the purposes of conducting a criminal prosecution against him. On that day, the Respondent’s solicitor stated orally in court that an appeal would be lodged against the extradition order, and on 16 December 2015, the notice of application for leave to appeal was filed with the Court. However, due to an oversight, the solicitor failed to serve the notice on the Crown Solicitor’s Office (on behalf of Greece) until about three weeks later.’

‘Recently, online debates have emerged about the usefulness of the website TheyWorkForYou (TWFY), a tool which provides people with a view into the voting records of Members of Parliament. Articles and blog posts have rightly detailed the oversimplification of providing a snapshot of members’ votes, which does not make clear the nuance of particular motivations behind votes, or the context in which those votes take place (for example, Opposition Day motions or whipping strategies). However, there is a deeper problem which underlies the structure of voting in the Westminster Parliamentary System; the informal agreement of pairing.’
