    Page 1 Halsbury's Laws of England (3) RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE CROWN AND THE JUDICIARY 133. The monarch as the source of justice. The constitutional status of the judiciary is underpinned by its origins in the royal prerogative and its legal relationship with the Crown, dating from the medieval period when the prerogatives were exercised by the monarch personally. By virtue of the prerogative the monarch is the source and fountain of justice, and all jurisdiction is derived from her1. Hence, in legal contemplation, the Sovereign's Majesty is deemed always to be present in court2 and, by the terms of the coronation oath and by the maxims of the common law, as also by the ancient charters and statutes confirming the liberties of the subject, the monarch is bound to cause law and justice in mercy to be administered in all judgments3. This is, however, now a purely impersonal conception, for the monarch cannot personally execute any office relating to the administration of justice4 nor effect an arrest5. 1 Bac Abr, Prerogative, D1: see COURTS AND TRIBUNALS VOL 24 (2010) PARA 609. 2 1 Bl Com (14th Edn) 269. 3 As to the duty to cause law and justice to be executed see PARA 36 head (2). 4 2 Co Inst 187; 4 Co Inst 71; Prohibitions del Roy (1607) 12 Co Rep 63.

  • The Man Who Enriched – and Robbed – the Tories
    Parliamentary History,Vol. 40, pt. 2 (2021), pp. 378–390 The Man Who Enriched – and Robbed – the Tories ALISTAIR LEXDEN House of Lords Horace Farquhar, financier, courtier and politician, was a man without a moral compass. He combined ruthlessness and dishonesty with great charm. As a Liberal Unionist MP in the 1890s, his chief aim was to get a peerage, for which he paid handsomely. He exploited everyone who came his way to increase his wealth and boost his social position, gaining an earldom from Lloyd George, to whose notorious personal political fund he diverted substantial amounts from the Conservative Party, of which he was treasurer from 1911 to 1923, the first holder of that post. The Tories’ money went into his own pocket as well. During these years, he also held senior positions at court, retaining under George V the trust of the royal family which he had won under Edward VII.By the time of his death in 1923,however,his wealth had disappeared,and he was found to be bankrupt. He was a man of many secrets. They have been probed and explored, drawing on such material relating to his scandalous career as has so far come to light. Keywords: Conservative Party; financial corruption; homosexuality; Liberal Unionist Party; monarchy; royal family; sale of honours 1 Horace Brand Farquhar (1844–1923), pronounced Farkwer, 1st and last Earl Farquhar, of St Marylebone,was one of the greatest rogues of his time,a man capable of almost any misdeed or sin short of murder (and it is hard to feel completely confident that he would have drawn thelineeventhere).1 He had three great loves: money, titles and royalty.

  • I1 the PUBLIC LIFE of FRANCIS BACON 0 the Majority of Readers, the Name Francis Bacon T Suggests Immediately One of the Most Versatile Gen- Iuses of All Time
    I1 THE PUBLIC LIFE OF FRANCIS BACON 0 the majority of readers, the name Francis Bacon T suggests immediately one of the most versatile gen- iuses of all time. So voluminous and so diversified was the output of his mind in the fields of philosophy, science, and literature, that it is easy to overlook the fact that the man had also a busy career in the alien field of politics, one that possibly was hardly in keeping with the nobility of his other work. Could we but have a true picture of Bacon’s entire career, it would, like the life and even the art of his day, reveal strong contrasts of light and of shadow. The phi- losopher seems hardly the same being as the courtier and politician. A picture of such irreconcilable contrasts is always difficult to evaluate permanently and fairly. Some see only the bright portions while others are more strongly affected by the shadows. So it is with the picture of Bacon. Spedding, his greatest biographer, has sought to gloss over many of his defects; and others, carried away by conspicu- ous political failures, have adopted the un-Baconian attitude of refusing to believe that much good could originate with this political manipulator of the seventeenth century. On the other hand, Pope sought in vain to epitomize fairly the many-sided Bacon as “the wisest, brightest, and meanest of mankind”; and Macaulay, in his melodramatic essay, de- scribed him as a monster, part angel and part snake. End- less controversy has raged over this picture of conflicting tendencies, and so it will always be, for Bacon’s life is an 23 24 Lectures on Francis Bacon enigma.

  • JOHN SINGLETON COPLEY, LORD LYNDHURST* by SIR WILLIAM Holdswortht
    JOHN SINGLETON COPLEY, LORD LYNDHURST* By SIR WILLIAM HOLDSWORTHt THE best account of John Singleton Copley, Lord Lyndhurst, is that by J. B. Atlay in his The Victorian Chancellors. Atlay had a genius for biography; and his life of Lyndhurst has done much to extract from Lord Campbell's maliciously inaccurate biography, from Theodore Martin's ex- posure of Campbell's malicious inaccuracies, and from other sources, the true story of his life. That story was long obscured by two facts: first, that Lyndhurst was the leader of the Tory or Conservative party in the House of Lords; secondly, that history has to a large extent been written from the Whig or Liberal standpoint. Bagehot thought that it was neces- sary to explain, what to him, as a convinced Liberal, was something of a problem- how it was that a man with Lyndhurst's great intellectual powers could be a Conservative leader? Indeed, if we look at his career from this party standpoint, it is somewhat mysterious. In his youth lie was said (though he always denied it) to have been a Whig and some- thing more than a Whig; and yet throughout his official life lie was a Tory and Conservative leader. Moreover, though he was a Tory and a Conservatiye, he gave valuable help, during his period of office as Chan- cellor and later, in carrying many measures of law reform. It is only in these later years, when the party politics of the nineteenth century have ceased to influence, consciously or unconsciously, historians' estimates of the men and events of that century, that it is possible to see that this problem, like others, is the product of the fog created by these party politics.

There is a great difficulty in the way of a writer who attempts to sketch a living Constitution, — a Constitution that is in actual work and power. The difficulty is that the object is in constant change. An historical writer does not feel this difficulty: he deals only with the past; he can say definitely, the Constitution worked in such and such a manner in the year at which he begins, and in a manner in such and such respects different in the year at which he ends; he begins with a definite point of time and ends with one also. But a contemporary writer who tries to paint what is before him is puzzled and perplexed; what he sees is chang- ing daily. He must paint it as it stood at some one time, or else he will be putting side by side in his representations things which never were con- temporaneous in reality. The difficulty is the greater because a writer who deals with a living government naturally compares it with the most important other living governments, and these are changing too; what he illustrates are altered in one way, and his sources of illustration are altered probably in a different way.
