Robin’s 58-Page Constitutional Challenge
from The Merry Men · host Robin Hood, Gary Glendale & Paul English
I opened this episode by giving Robin his flowers for a cracking recent broadcast and for finally sounding crystal clear on air after a full technical overhaul. From there, we settled into a wide-ranging conversation about presentation, building audience participation, and the atmosphere around the Merry Men shows before turning to the main event: Robin’s 58-page constitutional document, which he says sets out the historical and legal foundations for challenging the modern British state. We talked through the themes in that paper, including Magna Carta, the Bill of Rights, the Coronation Oath, Parliament, jurisdiction, common law, administrative courts, royal assent, and the separation of powers.Much of the show focused on Robin’s argument that the present system has drifted far from its constitutional roots, and that people need to understand the documents, language and legal mechanisms being used against them if they want any meaningful remedy. We also touched on the transfer of power to institutions, the role of the judiciary, data requests, GDPR, the House of Lords, the monarchy, and the practical question listeners kept raising: what can ordinary people actually do? We closed by urging listeners to read the document for themselves, share it widely, and keep thinking seriously about lawful, peaceful redress and constitutional accountability.Document posted to Telegram FFT Radio: https://t.me/fftradioBitcoin: https://bitcoin.org/en/Magna Carta (UK Parliament overview): https://www.parliament.uk/magnacarta/Magna Carta (1297 text): https://www.legislation.gov.uk/aep/Edw1cc1929/25/9Bill of Rights [1688]: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/aep/WillandMarSess2/1/2/contentsCoronation Oath Act / Coronation Oath background (UK Parliament): https://www.parliament.uk/about/living-heritage/evolutionofparliament/parliamentwork/offices-and-ceremonies/collections/parliament-and-the-queen/coronation-oath-act/House of Lords Act 1999: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1999/34/contentsLocal Government Act 1972: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1972/70/contentsSenior Courts Act 1981: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1981/54/contentsLos Lobos: https://www.loslobos.org/
