Public Inquiry · All citizens are equal but some are to be treated as diplomats – or else?

Public Inquiry · All citizens are equal but some are to be treated as diplomats – or else?: "The Inspector General of Customs at the time had a son deeply involved in the same sport as the man who had his items confiscated.

About a week after his interview Patwell checked with his colleagues at the airport and was told the man in question had been given back all the items confiscated and no record had been made of the incident.

Disgusted by the whole affair Patwell left Customs and got himself a job as a court clerk.

Isn’t that a great little statement?"

Those ECB letters – The Story

Those ECB letters – The Story: In a matter that appears to have some similarity to the Irish letter, on July 19 2012 the European Ombudsman made a decision on a request by a Spanish lawyer in relation to a letter sent by the ECB to the Spanish government. The lawyer sought a copy of the letter because he wanted to know if the ECB had sought an amendment to the Spanish constitution. The lawyer was refused access by the Ombudsman, “however, with the consent of the ECB President, he confirmed to the complainant that the letter did not suggest any amendments to the Spanish Constitution. The lawyer was satisfied with this outcome”.?
