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...

Private Eyes, Public Lives... Celebrities and Invasion of Privacy by Lexi Mackenzie

"Hi! My names Lexi and I live in Cornwall. I'm just about to go into my second year of college, where I study Law, History and Psychology. After I finish my A Levels I hope to go to Bristol University to study Law" The general public had little access to the lives of celebrities prior to the digital age. People were rarely carried away by the escapism of celebrity scandals. However, technological advancements have resulted in daily headlines on dating rumours to what celebrities eat for breakfast. As a result, public curiosity about celebrities has increased and so has the invasion of privacy.   The Law and Privacy  Currently, in the United Kingdom, the media aren’t subject to any regulations over their content, though of course they can still be prosecution for spreading hate speech. For example, the Racial and Religious Hatred Act 2006 makes it an offence to stir up religious hatred, whilst the Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008 makes it an offence to incite hatr...
