“Harlow Star” “Paul Wilson”

An interesting article in the Scottish National Trust magazine about the late Tam Dalyell of “West Lothian Question” fame. The article notes that his parents decided to gift their ancestral home and estate – the House of Binns – to the Trust in 1944. As heir presumptive the eleven year old Tam had to sign the deed of transfer in his headmaster’s study. He recalled later in life that in doing so “I was made to sit in the chair over which the headmaster had beaten me the evening before. With good reason, I might say. It was the only occasion when the headmaster lent a boy his fountain pen!”

I have always admired Tam’s wisdom and foresight in relation to Scottish devolution. If only the Labour Party leadership had listened to him!

“Harlow Star” “Paul Wilson”

This is how Google Translate interpreted the item:
The amendment against spanking censored by the Constitutional Council
On Thursday, the Constitutional Council censured several provisions of the text “equality and citizenship”, the last important law of the quinquennium Holland.
JOURNAL THE WORLD
It was the last important law of the quinquennium, often referred to as the “broom law”, since it had aggregated a number of measures which had not been able to find their place in other legislative texts. Thursday, January 26, the Constitutional Council censured several provisions of the text, some on the merits, some on the form, considering that the measures in question had nothing to do in the law.
This is the case of Article 222 of the Equality and Citizenship Bill, which introduced in the definition of parental authority the prohibition of resorting to “bodily violence” against children. This parliamentary amendment, which symbolically proscribed slaps and spanking, had been voted with the tacit agreement of the government. He was regarded as a legislative “rider”, that is, irrelevant to the main purpose of the law. The Constitutional Council had been seized on this point by sixty senators of the opposition.
According to the authors of the amendment, Marie-Anne Chapdelaine (Socialist Party, PS, Ille-et-Vilaine) was a member of the Civil Code. Edith Gueugneau (various left, Saône-et-Loire), and François-Michel Lambert (ecologist, Bouches-du-Rhône). They had previously unsuccessfully tabled a bill on this subject.
The Minister for Families, Children and Women’s Rights, Laurence Rossignol, hailed after the vote in the National Assembly the new drafting of the Civil Code, which “amplifies the work of conviction that it leads, with Associations, in favor of non-violent education “, as well as” an indispensable tool for the prevention of child abuse “.
Reacting to censorship, the minister expressed on Friday her “great disappointment”. “I am very shocked that right-wing deputies have referred this new article to the Constitutional Council (…). From a certain point of view, they have claimed the right to strike children, “said Laurence Rossignol.
An “incomprehensible and unethical” decision
“If the article is censored, those who have seized the Constitutional Council will have nothing to be proud of,” she said to her associations and the press on Monday (January 23rd). The terms of the text had been negotiated at length between parliamentarians and the minister. The words “punishment” and “corporal punishment”, which were deemed too cleavic, had thus been rejected.
The term “violence” was less clear, because for many parents, spanking or slapping is not part of this register. Violence against children is also punished by the Criminal Code. But in practice, only serious abuses are repressed. For associations that have been campaigning for the prohibition of corporal punishment for many years, this was a very important tool to spread the idea that the blows given to children are counterproductive.
“The decision of the Constitutional Council is incomprehensible and not ethical,” comments the doctor Gilles Lazimi, who has been fighting for many years to evolve the law.
“One of the highest institutions of the State refuses the idea that violence against children should be prohibited, whereas they are prohibited on adults and animals. It is the law of equality and citizenship. It is a matter of equal rights for children. ”
In addition, the Council has invalidated other important provisions of the text.
 Housing
Like the provision allowing the State to suppress the endowment of urban solidarity paid to the poor communes but deficient in HLM and making no effort to no longer be. In particular, 26 communes shared 10 million euros. The Constitutional Council considered that “the purpose of this grant is to contribute to the improvement of living conditions and that this would deprive the municipalities of a substantial part of their income”.
Another provision, which had been censored for legislative reasons, would have allowed social or private landlords to ask the judge to terminate the lease and expel the inhabitants of a dwelling where one of the occupants was convicted in a narcotics case In the places themselves. The social landlords demanded this possibility to be able to expel the gangs of traffickers who disrupt the life of entire buildings.
 School without contract
In the field of education, the government is failing on a sensitive issue: the strengthening of the control of non-contractual schools when they are opened. There are only a few thousand institutions, of which 300 are denominational.

Thank you Oliver Sydney

Your translation is considerably more lucid than the one I was able to muster out of this document. I had some French “violence on Children” nutter stalking me for a while on twitter. it was entertaining but eventually became tiresome, so I had to block her. Too bad, I sometimes enjoy the rabid ravings of these people

Cheers.

British Censorship.

UK Porn Laws allows mild corporal punishment and spanking when no lasting marks occur. The scholastic cane not have been employed in so many years yet has held its interests. I guess that’s why they call it the British Vice.

Sex workers did not let their displeasure be known more than a year ago to protest what they considered draconian laws against pornography.
In Manchester’s Centre’s Sackville Park there was a “Spankathon”

Britain, of late, has experienced its share of print censorship. Are things going to change with changes ahead for Britain? IMHO it is too subjective.

Not everyone acquiesced without a fight as past posted.

Bring back the birch, urged several members of Newark Town Council during a discussion on juvenile vandalism.
One councillor said the cost to employers and others of making good damage was the cost of the bad bringing-up of children.
Councillor Leslie Carswell, a schoolmaster, said “I hope the time will come when a more enlightened democracy alters the law to restore birching and rescinds what some of these airy-fairy idealists have alrady done.”

Newark Advertise,r 5 May 1967

Are e still awaiting an enlightened democracy or was he, even in 1967, flogging a dead horse as it were?
