Catherine of Aragon; divorced and lived in seclusion until her death in 1536, a hollow victory for her rival, as it turned out. This was so he could wed: 2. Anne Boleyn, mother of Elizabeth I, beheaded in 1536 on trumped-up adultery charges when she failed to produce a male heir. Henry immediately married her lady in waiting: 3. Jan e Seymour, who died less than a year later producing the male heir. This m ade him disconsolate for five minutes so he chose: 4. Anne of Cleves. The lucky one. He disliked her looks and pensioned her off after six months, declaring the marriage void. Died comfortably off, outliving almost everyone else in the drama, in 1557. He then turned his beady eyes on: 5. Catherine Howard; the really unlucky one. Beheaded at 22 in 1542 after two years married to the old hog. 6.

  • NUJ Welcomes May's Review of the Press
    NEWS FROM THE NATIONAL EXECUTIVE Informedissue 22 March 2018 Trinity Mirror’s decision to extend its digital pilot, Birmingham Live, makes it essential that the major newspaper groups answer questions about the impact their policies will have on the sector. Concerns about the threat to media plurality were raised after Newsquest’s recent takeover of the independent, family-owned CN Group, which owns two regional dailies, five weeklies and magazines. The deal could result in the UK’s local newspaper industry becoming a duopoly of Newquest and Trinity Mirror since Johnston Press’s debts make its viability appear at risk. The NUJ will be calling for the big three news groups, Newsquest, Trinity Mirror and Johnston Press, to be called to account for failing to invest in journalism Newsquest strikers at the Swindon Advertiser and presiding over the loss of hundreds of titles and thousands of journalist and photographer jobs.

  • The Changing Winds of Civilization: the Aboriginal and Sovereignty Between the Desert and the State,” Intersections 10, No
    intersections online Volume 10, Number 2 (Spring 2009) Luke Caldwell, “The Changing Winds of Civilization: The Aboriginal and Sovereignty Between the Desert and the State,” intersections 10, no. 2 (2009): 119-149. ABSTRACT The antagonistic relationship between the Australian state and the Aborigines has deep and problematic roots. Beginning with the racist doctrine of terra nullius, I look at how more than two hundred years of legal policies have consistently constructed the Aborigine as a problem that required a state solution. I argue that these policies are predicated on a complete denial of native sovereignty and have increasingly alienated native communities. By refusing to engage with the source of these problems, the state has created significant barriers to native rehabilitation and has hijacked reconciliation efforts to strengthen its hegemony instead of native groups. Rather than solving the “Aboriginal problem”, these state policies have created it by placing Aborigines in an ambiguous political space that functions as a medium for civilizing the native—a process through which the native is killed and reborn in a form that is unproblematic for the state. http://depts.washington.edu/chid/intersections_Spring_2009/Luke_Caldwell_The_Changing_Winds_of_Civilization.pdf © 2009 intersections, Luke Caldwell.

  • Indigenous Rights and the 1991-2000 Australian Reconciliation Process
    Indigenous Rights and the 1991-2000 Australian Reconciliation Process Andrew Gunstone Abstract The formal reconciliation process in Australia was conducted between 1991 and 2000 and aimed to reconcile Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples by 2001. In this paper, I detail the failure of both this reconciliation process and governments, in particular the Howard Government, to recognise Indigenous rights, such as sovereignty, a treaty, self-determination and land rights. In 1991, the Australian Commonwealth Parliament unanimously passed the Council for Aboriginal Reconciliation Act 1991 which instituted a ten-year formal process of reconciliation. The aim of this process was to reconcile Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples by the centenary of Australia’s federation in 2001. The process was facilitated and promoted by the government-initiated Council for Aboriginal Reconciliation (CAR). During the reconciliation decade, many Indigenous political leaders, involved in key Indigenous organisations, such as CAR or the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC), and who were mostly men, consistently and clearly advocated that a range of Indigenous rights needed to be genuinely recognised by the reconciliation process and governments. These rights included sovereignty, self-determination, land rights, intellectual and cultural rights, parliamentary representation and a treaty. In this paper, I detail this history of political demands for Indigenous rights by Indigenous leaders between 1991 and 2000. I argue that these demands, despite

  • Recipient: Senate Committee
    Recipient: Senate Committee Letter: Greetings, I would like to express my deep concern over the proposed introduction of so-called 'Ag Gag' laws - Criminal Code Amendment (Animal Protection) Bill 2015. These laws are nothing more than an attempt to protect those who abuse animals (both illegally, and within industry standard guidelines) and prevent consumers from making informed choices regarding what practices they choose to support. We do not need laws that punish and criminalise animal cruelty investigators. I believe the current laws are more than sufficient to protect private citizens from alleged trespassers and that the introduction of ‘Ag Gag’ laws would only serve to protect industries that for too long have freely gotten away with animal abuse. The public has every right to be aware of what they choose to participate in, and it is only through the efforts of animal activists that they are able to do so. I implore you to protect the right of the public to know the truth by opposing the introduction of Ag Gag laws. Comments Name Location Date Comment Renate McLaughlin Melbourne, GU 2015-03-09 I totally believe in supporting animals connie tonna Georgetown, SC 2015-03-09 This is Shameful - even with laws protecting the animals they still undergo severe abuse - if this law is passed the animals will have no protection whatsoever. Janet Veevers Australia 2015-03-09 Animals have, to our great shame, very little protection in law on Australia. We need more protection for animals and more stringent punishments for their abusers. We are not a third world country so why is the Senate considering something that will put us alongside them? Karen wall Melbourne, VIC 2015-03-09 How disgraceful that you would consider making it a crime to bring attention to any form of animal cruelty.
