Before my year I spent a long time promoting the Club in the Livery and we attracted several new members through this initiative. I had a huge number of invitations as President to other liveries, the majority of which, unfortunately, were withdrawn after the March 23rd lockdown, nonetheless I thoroughly enjoyed those I did go to. Katy enjoyed one of the best vegan meals in her life at the Mansion House banquet for the Needlemakers. Amongst others, I also received some wonderful gifts such as a basket from the Basketmakers, a Powerbank from the PWC China Group and a commemorative set of packs of playing cards celebrating the Battle of Britain at the Makers of Playing Cards’ banquet. There have also been some superb events, such as the cheese and wine parties (which even as a teetotaller I loved) and photo competitions organised by our sections. It was very sad that 12 of the 20 events I had organised, including a holiday to Oberammergau, a Brazilian party, a talk Lord Mayor’s Parade 2019 - President & Club flag bearer Colin Sach (Andy Sillett photo) on Islamic finance, a Jewish ceremony but especially a gathering of Livery companies processing under the banner “Pride in the So yes, a tough year but I did my best and I am very pleased to President Adèle Thorpe Livery” in the London Pride March, were all cancelled. hand over the Club in reasonable

The trend began in 1964, when ABC produced the sitcom The Addams Family (1964-66), based on works of cartoonist Charles Addams, and CBS countered with its own The Munsters (CBS, 1964-66) –both satirical inversions of the American ideal sitcom family in which various monsters and freaks from Gothic literature and classic horror films form a family of misfits that somehow thrive in middle-class, suburban America.

Despite their close economic relationship since 1965, their conflicting historic and political relationships and deep-seated prejudice against each other have continued. The Korean government’s official ban on the direct import of Japanese cultural products existed until 1997, but various kinds of Japanese cultural products, including popular music, found their way into Korea through various legal and illegal routes and influenced contemporary Korean popular culture. Since 1998, under Korea’s Open- Door Policy, legally available Japanese popular cultural products became widely consumed, especially among young Koreans fascinated by Japan’s quintessentially postmodern popular culture, despite lingering resentments towards Japan.

    Sheriffs' & Recorder's Fund

    SHERIFFS’ & RECORDER’S FUND Annual Report 2018-2019 The Fund was established by the Sheriffs of the City of London in 1808 The Sheriffs’ & Recorder’s Fund In 1808 the two Sheriffs of the City of London set up a fund to help prisoners living in appalling conditions in Newgate, and their families. In 1931 the Fund merged with the fund set up by the Recorder to assist offenders released on probation. The Sheriffs’ & Recorder’s Fund still plays a vital part in preventing re-offending. In prison today: • The prison population has risen by 77% in the last 30 years. England & Wales has the highest imprisonment rate in Western Europe. • Assault rates among children in custody average 228 assaults a month. • 43% of prisons received a negative rating from inspectors in 2017-18 for purposeful activity work. In many prisons work remains mundane, repetitive and rarely linked to resettlement objectives. • 54% of those entering prison were assessed as having literacy skills expected of an 11-year-old (general population: 15%). • The number of women in prison has doubled since 1993. On release: • On release prisoners receive £46 – a sum unchanged since 1997 (with inflation, the equivalent today is £82.34). • 50% of respondents to a 2016 YouGov survey said they would not consider employing an offender or ex-offender • 48% of adults are reconvicted within one year of release (64% of those serving sentences of less than 12 months). Working in an office in the Old Bailey provided by the Corporation of London, the Fund gives small grants to ex-prisoners and their families in Greater London to buy essentials: clothes for a job interview, a training course, tools of trade, household equipment.

    Committee(s) Dated: Standards Committee 5 October 2018 Subject: Public Declaration of Gifts and Hospitality in relation to the special provision made for the Lord Mayor and Shrevialty as Ceremonial Office Holders Report of: For Information Executive Director, Mansion House and Central Criminal Court Report Author: Vic Annells Summary To update the Committee on the Lord Mayor and Shrieval declaration of gifts and hospitality for the year 2017/18. Recommendation(s) Members are asked to note the report. Main Report Background 1. Following the meeting of Standards Committee on 20th February 2015 it was agreed that as of 1st April 2015 gifts and hospitality which breached the threshold, as applied to all Members, would be declared unless they fell within the caveat outlined within the previous report of ‘special provision’ for the Lord Mayor and Shrievalty as ceremonial office holders. 2. The last report on gifts and hospitality was made to the Committee at its meeting in October 2017. Current Position 3. Since the last report, the Lord Mayor has made declarations at broadly three monthly intervals, declaring gifts and hospitality publicly via the internet page - http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/about-the-city/the-lord-mayor/Pages/default.aspx The gifts and hospitality are detailed on separate documents. 4. Members will be aware that the Shrievalty commences in September, therefore, the attached appendices summarise the Shrieval year of Alderman and Sheriff Timothy Hailes and Sheriff Neil Redcliffe. 5. The Lord Mayor and Shrievalty have no separate declarations to make to the Committee under the special provision. All gifts and hospitality have been declared in the attached appendices.
