on Wednesday 15 June 2016 (tomorrow!) at 10am. [The previous announcements on this blog:

1. Support Revd Paul Nicolson at Tottenham Magistrates Court, Weds 15 June at 10am(1)

3. Media notice re Revd Paul Nicolson's defiance of illegitimate Council Tax levying(3)

This is alongside others supporting his aims of social and economic justice. The weather prospects for the day may not be brilliant for a demonstration outside the Court House, but that may be all the more reason for those in support of the 'Refusenik Revd' to enter the court — peacefully, of course. Just think of the impact that that may have in terms of 'justice being done — or not, as the case may be — and the fact that there will be witnesses present to what happens in that magistrates court. KUWG's branding 'strap line' or 'golden rule' is, "Never attend anywhere official alone," and officialdom regards the people facing them differently when the accompaniers really attend the building rather than just leave the person called before offialdom after helping them to arrive at the building.

(Compare this with U. Glasgow Law Professor Dr David Webster's observations regarding how benefit sanctions are applied as 'Britain's secret secret penal system'.(4))

Two members of the KUWG have committed themselves to attending physically in support of the 'Refusenik Revd'. Other 'Kwuggies' will be 'with him in spirit' as they take part in the direct action of helping people with their cases, some of which involve contesting the 'secret penal system' that is the application of benefit sanctions by bureaucrats who — as the U. Glasgow law professor has pointed out — have never faced the people sentenced to devastating loss of basic income.

As an ending note to this blog post, demonstrations can be great networking opportunities — though talking between members of the public inside the Court Room while the Court is in session is likely to be pounced upon heavily! It is also cogent to mention that at this time of writing, Revd Paul Nicolson's 2014 article What councils don't tell you about the enforcement of Council Tax has, to date, attracted 437 viewings to this blog, making it the 5th all time 'biggest hit' on the Kilburn Unemployed blog.(5)
