Until Proven Guilty... Prisoner Disenfranchisement in the UK by Mihika Chopra

"I'm an A-level student studying English Literature, History, and Government and Politics, currently serving as Deputy Head Girl of Herschel Grammar School, and a Co-Founder of the Herschel Law Society. I hope to study Law at university and pursue a career in the legal industry. I love to read - currently reading "The Idiot" by Fyodor Dostoevsky"." The question raised about felon disenfranchisement also inevitably raises the question as to whether the prison system should be more about rehabilitation, or punishment; something which must also be considered when contemplating this predicament. Convicted persons, during the time that they are detained in a penal institution, are legally incapable of voting at any parliamentary or local government election . One presumes this to be completely preposterous because prisoners, even those who serve the average life sentence, will eventually be released into society, and will be expected to become productive citizen...

Shrek Out My Swamp... A Look At Shrek's Legal Rights On His Land

We all know the plot of the first Shrek  movie: Lord Farquaad rounds up the land's fairytale creatures and dumps them in Shrek's swamp, leading the ogre to rescue a princess to get his land back, but what if there was an easier way than enduring blistering winds and scorching deserts, climbing to the highest room of the tallest tower, fighting a dragon, and trekking across the country with a talking donkey and a were-ogre princess in tow? What if, for argument's sake, Shrek visited his local lawyer? In England, where we shall assume the plot takes place (thanks to the accent of Lord Farquaad), all land is legally owned by the Crown, but it is safe to assume that Shrek owns his land in a freehold - technically a 'fee simple absolute in possession'. What does this mean exactly? 'Fee' means that the swamp is inheritable, 'simple' means it can be possessed by anyone, not just lineal descendants, 'absolute' means that there are no conditions on ...

Stopping Stealthing... UK and international law on non-consensual condom removal by Ethan Norman

" I'm 17 and currently doing my A-levels in History, Government & Politics and Philosophy & Ethics. I enjoy cooking, video games and debating social problems with others; which'll hopefully help me when I go to University to do law." Arabella, a young woman in her late 20s, was left confused and scared after an encounter with a man called Zain. Whilst the beginning of their hook up began well, midway through Arabella’s partner removed his condom without her knowledge and consent. She felt violated after learning what he did, not knowing that non-consensual condom removal (also known as ‘stealthing’) is rape and prosecutable under UK law.  Whilst Arabella and her story is fiction, from the 2020 BBC show “I May Destroy You”, stealthing is all too real and a growing problem in the 21st century. But what is stealthing? While it seems to be very self-explanatory as just the removal of a condom without a person’s consent, there are nuances within the law that broade...
