THE COURTS DAMNABLE INJUSTICE TOWARDS SIMONE PERRY AND THE POSTAL WORKERS

Simone Perry, a young woman who has endured many personal difficulties, made a tragic mistake, leaving her child alone for a matter of minutes which she will spend a lifetime regretting. She has been sentenced to 22 months in prison. Monied, advantaged judges, who come from backgrounds where parents routinely abuse their children, even exposing them to murder, and yet receive no sentence at all, crush the already crushed and punish the already punished. Our judicial system is broken. The powerful and rich from their plenty further oppress and destroy the life of a young woman, struggling for survival.

Meanwhile, over 700 postal workers have had their lives ruined for decades, branded criminals, fined and imprisoned by the courts, only now to be vindicated and have their sentences quashed. Will the judges that convicted them and sentenced them go to jail? Will the barristers and solicitors that grew rich as they set up and pursued the innocent for gain be convicted? Will the powerful executives in the Postal Service face criminal charges? No, meaningless apologies and humbug words about regret, failings, inquiries and reform will try to plaster over the gaping wounds inflicted and navigate across the tsunami of tears wept by the humble that have been blighted again by the mighty.

The courts damnable injustices and catastrophic judicial system shame our country. It is time for a radical new approach.

ARCHBISHOP JONATHAN BLAKE - MY LIFE - PART ONE
ARCHBISHOP JONATHAN BLAKE - MY LIFE - PART TWO

I AM PROUD OF MY WRITING, FOR JESUS’S SAKE, THAT HAS HAD ME FOUND INNOCENT IN HEAVEN, BUT TWICE A CRIMINAL ON THE EARTH. THE FIRST IN 1990 WHEN I WROTE A BIBLICAL TEXT ON THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT IN PEACEFUL PROTEST ABOUT THE BOMBING OF YOUNG IRAQI RECRUITS DURING THE FIRST GULF WAR. THE SECOND, IN 2016 WHEN I WROTE ON MY BLOG, TO ALERT THE PUBLIC ABOUT A PAEDOPHILE, AND WAS SUCCESSFUL IN FORCING THE AUTHORITIES TO STOP HIM HAVING ACCESS TO CHILDREN. THERE WAS ALMOST A THIRD! IN 1997, WHEN I WAS ARRESTED FOR NAILING MY PROPOSALS FOR REFORM OF THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND ON THE DOOR OF CANTERBURY CATHEDRAL. WORDS ARE POWERFUL MESSAGES THAT CHALLENGE  CORRUPTION, CONFRONT THE WICKED AND CREATE A BETTER WORLD. JESUS IS THE WORD OF GOD AND HIS FOLLOWERS ARE CALLED  TO COMMUNICATE HIS WORDS,  IRRESPECTIVE OF THE COST.
"You brave, courageous and wonderful man. To stand up for the truth
 in the face of suppression and oppression is truly an act of a pure heart."
