  • By Mr Justice Edwin Cameron Supreme Court of Appeal, Bloemfontein, South Africa
    The Bentam Club Presidential Address Wednesday 24 March ‘When Judges Fail Justice’ by Mr Justice Edwin Cameron Supreme Court of Appeal, Bloemfontein, South Africa 1. It is a privilege and a pleasure for me to be with you this evening. The presidency of the Bentham Club is a particular honour. Its sole duty is to deliver tonight’s lecture. In fulfilling this office I hope you will not deal with me as Hazlitt, that astute and acerbic English Romantic essayist, dealt with Bentham.1 He denounced him for writing in a ‘barbarous philosophical jargon, with all the repetitions, parentheses, formalities, uncouth nomenclature and verbiage of law-Latin’. Hazlitt, who could, as they say, ‘get on a roll’, certainly did so in his critique of Bentham, whom he accused of writing ‘a language of his own that darkens knowledge’. His final rebuke to Bentham was the most piquant: ‘His works’, he said, ‘have been translated into French – they ought to be translated into English.’ I trust that we will not tonight need the services of a translator. 2. To introduce my theme I want to take you back nearly twenty years, to 3 September 1984. The place is in South Africa – a township 60 km south of Johannesburg. It is called Sharpeville. At the time its name already had ineradicable associations with black resistance to apartheid – and with the brutality of police responses to it. On 21 March 1960, 24 years before, the police gunned down more than sixty unarmed protestors – most of them shot in the back as they fled from the scene.

Policy was often manipulated with a callous disregard for principles so that at least one of the themes, anti-Semitism, gained ascendancy over the B.O.F.'s proposals for reform. Policy was hinged to the likelihood ofan impending economic crisis and attempts were made to locate the causes and to pre­ scribe its resolution. As the probability ofan economic crisis _ and hence political power - grew remote, the possibility of an international crisis was stressed.

As a group the aristocracy faced a set of circumstances unique to their class. These circumstances created the fear of another devastating war, loss of Empire, and the spread of Bolshevism. The conclusion was determined by researching numerous books and articles. When events required sacrifice to save king and country, the aristocracy forfeited privilege and wealth to save England.

  • 'Nationalist' Economic Policy John E. Richardson
    The National Front, and the search for a ‘nationalist’ economic policy John E. Richardson (forthcoming 2017) To be included in Copsey, N. & Worley, M. (eds) 'Tomorrow Belongs to Us': The British Far- Right Since 1967 Summarizing the economic policies of the National Front (NF) is a little problematic. Compared to their copious discussion of race and nation, of immigration, culture, history and even the environment, British fascists since WWII have had little to say, in detail, on their political-economic ideology. In one of the first content analytic studies of the NF’s mouthpiece Spearhead, for example, Harris (1973) identified five themes which dominated the magazine’s all pervasive conspiracy thinking: authoritarianism, ethnocentrism, racism, biological naturalism and anti-intellectualism. The economy was barely discussed, other than in the context of imagined generosity of the welfare state. The topic is so under-developed that even Rees’ (1979) encyclopaedic bibliography on British fascism, covering over 800 publications on and by fascists (between 1923-1977) doesn’t include a section on political economy. Frequently, the closest fascists get to outlining their political-economic ideology is to identify ‘the problem’: the forces of ‘cosmopolitan internationalism’ (that is: the Jews) importing migrants, whose cheap labour threatens white livelihoods, and whose physical presence threatens the racial purity of the nation. ‘The solution’, on the other hand, is far less frequently spelled out. In essence, fascist parties, like the NF, are comparatively clear about what political economies they oppose – international capitalism and international communism – but are far less clear or consistent about the political economy they support.

    [1946] A.C. 347 [HOUSE OF LORDS.] JOYCE APPELLANT; AND DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC PROSECUTIONS RESPONDENT. 1945 Dec. 10, 11, 12, 13, 18. LORD JOWITT L.C., LORD MACMILLAN, LORD WRIGHT, 1946 Feb. 1. LORD PORTER and LORD SIMONDS. Criminal law - Treason - Adherence to the King's enemies without the realm - Alien - Local allegiance - Protection - British passport - Protecting country left by alien - Allegiance not divested - Treason Act, 1351 (25 Edw. 3, stat. 5, c. 2). In 1933 the appellant, an American citizen, who had resided in British territory for about twenty-four years, applied for and obtained a British passport, describing himself as a British subject by birth and stating that he required it for the purpose of holiday touring in Belgium, France, Germany, Switzerland, Italy and Austria. On its expiration, he obtained renewals on September 24, 1938 and on August 24, 1939, each for a period of one year, again describing himself as a British subject. After the outbreak of war between Great Britain and Germany and before the expiration of the validity of the renewed passport, he was proved to have been employed by the German radio company and to have delivered from enemy territory broadcast talks in English hostile to Great Britain. The passport was not found in his possession when he was arrested. Having been convicted of high treason he appealed:- Held (1.) that an alien abroad holding a British passport enjoys the protection of the Crown and if he is adherent to the King's enemies he is guilty of treason, so long as he has not renounced that protection; (2.) (per Lord Jowitt L.C., Lord Macmillan Lord Wright and Lord Simonds, Lord Porter dissenting) that the judge at the trial had given a proper direction to the jury who could not have failed to appreciate from it that it was for them to consider whether at the material times the appellant continued to enjoy the protection afforded by the passport.
