Should there be Cameras in Court? Thomas Goodman iv NOTTINGHAM LAW JOURNAL VOL. 25 2016 EDITORIAL I am very pleased to introduce Volume 25 of the Nottingham Law Journal. I hope you will agree that this is a particularly strong issue with a diverse and stimulating range of contributions. Our articles of contemporary legal significance include something of interest to international lawyers, contract lawyers, public lawyers, sports lawyers and those working and researching in the field of intellectual property. Professor Mark Pawlowski and Dr James Brown explore how contract law applies in auction sales, a hitherto unexplored field of enquiry and, by their own admission, ‘no easy task’. An entirely different field, albeit equally unexplored and intricate, is examined by Visar Morina from the University of Pristina in his analysis of the role of precedent in Kosovan constitutional courts. Our third article sees Simon Boyes extending his considerable knowledge of sports law to investigate the legal position of sports regulatory bodies. Finally, Dr Janice Denoncourt combines theory and practice in an interdisciplinary consideration of how best to protect the creative identity through intellectual property law. Our thematic articles arise from a symposium held at Nottingham Law School in March 2015 on the legal implications relating to the ban on the face veil which became the subject of a particularly contentious European Court of Human Rights’ decision in SAS v France. The section includes submissions from highly respected academics and legal practitioners who critically examine the reasoning and impact of the Court’s judgment through perspectives grounded in personal autonomy and religious freedom. A contrasting and reliably challenging angle is provided by the feminist, Muslim jour- nalist, Yasmin Alibhai- Brown, who views the veil as a ‘rejection of progressive values’. The papers are introduced by director of the Centre for Conflict, Rights and Justice at Nottingham Law School, Tom Lewis. As is customary I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to all the contributors, reviewers, subscribers and readers of the Nottingham Law Journal. Particular thanks are owed to my assistant editor, Janice Denoncourt who not only managed to offer her own erudite contribution to this edition but was also called upon at the eleventh hour to review a case commentary from the Paris Court of Appeal. Additionally I wish to thank Louise Taylor for checking my proof- reading, thus enabling me to dilute my own accountability for any editorial errors.

    RE-VISITING THE FRAUD ACT 2006 – A STEP TOO FAR? Hannah Willcocks Brought into force on 15th January 2007,1 the Fraud Act 2006 (‘the Act’) has now been part of the criminal law of England and Wales for over 12 years. Through the introduction of a new general offence of fraud, its aim was to improve the law by making it: a. more comprehensible to juries, especially in serious fraud trials; b. a useful tool in effective prosecutions; c. simpler and therefore fairer; and d. more flexible so able to encompass all forms of fraud 2 and “deal with developing technology”.3 Following the Act’s implementation, it has generally4 been accepted5 that the Act has managed to overcome the vast majority of the difficulties previously encountered with the old offences of deception.6 In 2012, in its Post-Legislative Assessment of the Fraud Act 2006, the Ministry of Justice (‘MoJ’) concluded that the aims and objectives of the 1 The Fraud Act 2006 (Commencement) Order 2006 (SI 2006/3200). 2 Law Commission, Fraud (Law Com No 276, Cm 5560, 2002), para 1.6. 3 Home Office, Fraud Law Reform: Consultation on Proposals for Legislation (2004) p. 5. 4 For a contrary view see Anthony Arlidge QC, Jonathan Fisher QC, Alexander Milne QC and Polly Sprenger, Arlidge and Parry on Fraud (5th edn, Sweet & Maxwell 2016) 44, para 3-005. 5 See e.g. Simester and Sullivan’s Criminal Law, Theory and Doctrine (5th edn, Hart Publishing Ltd 2013) 610; Andrew Ashworth & Jeremy Horder, Principles of Criminal Law (7th edn, Oxford University Press 2013) 405; Carol Withey ‘The Fraud Act 2006 – some early observations and comparisons with the former law’ (2007) 71(3) Journal of Criminal Law, 220 – 237, 228 – 236; Nicholas Yeo, ‘Bull’s-Eye’, 157 NLJ 212 & 418.

  • My Mother Found Me in Alice Springs
    THE MAN WHO EXPLODED WITH FIRE AND GRACE Wally McArthur 22 February 2019 A top athlete denied a chance to compete for Olympic Gold, Wally McArthur lived at “The Bungalow” in Alice Springs before being evacuated to NSW during WW2. After the war he went to St Francis House in Adelaide, became a rugby star in England and was a member of the Aboriginal rugby league team of the century. Wally McArthur was a rising sprinting champion in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Wally McArthur was an inspiration. His younger cousin John Moriarty, who was taken from the same Borroloola area of the Northern Territory, has said, “He could have been one of the world’s great athletes. He just exploded with fire and grace.” “He was a leader. He looked after us younger kids. He was such a humble compassionate person. Wally set a standard for us, as to what could be achieved in sport.” Born in 1933 McArthur’s father was a policeman named Langdon, but the authorities, who registered many of these births, gave him the name of McArthur, after the river at Borroloola. McArthur recalled his removal from his family in a 1998 interview with John Pilger, “It was a government car, because only the government had cars at that time. The driver put me in the front seat with him and he drove around while I waved at my family. I have never seen them since, you know. They were sitting around the camp fire. They didn't understand what was happening.” In a 1999 interview with Peter Hackett for The Advertiser McArthur said, “I don’t feel angry about it.
