Lady of 83, student of the British Constitution - stands alone

Westminster News and Namaste Publishing | 14.08.2007 23:41 | Education | Globalisation | History | London


This most knowledgeable and courageous lady is a torchbearer, illuminating the truth concerning the illegality of the EU and the deliberate destruction and concealment of our Constitution. Our ministers have indeed committed TREASON


Will We the People support her? Or, as it has become
our custom, will we turn our heads and look the other way?


“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious.
But it cannot survive treason from within…”

The Westminster News

As one flagrant breach of the Constitution is piled onto another, Mrs. Elizabeth Beckett is one of those who is prepared to stand up and fight.

When she discovered that her council tax bill was being used as a vehicle to extract money from her for a European Union inspired regional assembly, she went on the offensive.
She launched four legal cases against the government citing erosion of the Constitution, Breach of Contract, Breach of Trust and for Treason and Legal Fraud. Each time her paperwork was sent back marked “No such case known in Law”.


LEGAL FRAUD

Now she is refusing to pay the local tax on her Old Vicarage house in Alston, Cumbria, and has been the subject of considerable harassment by bailiffs.

Mrs. Beckett, whose father was Ronald Brymer Beckett, a High Court Judge, has researched the British Constitution and states that there are three general principles governing the system of raising money for public purposes by compelling the payment by individuals of sums of money called taxes.

1) Subjects of every state ought to contribute to the support of the Government as nearly as possible in proportion to their respective abilities; that is, in proportion to the revenue that they respectively enjoy under the protection of the state. In the observation or neglect of this maximum consists what is called equality or inequality taxation.

2) The tax that each individual is bound to pay ought to be certain and not arbitrary. The time, manner and quality of the payment ought to be certain and not arbitrary, clear to the contributor and to every other person.

3) Every tax ought to be so contrived as both to take out and keep out of the pockets of the people as little as possible over and above what it brings into the public treasury of the State.

Mrs, Beckett has refused to pay her council tax to Eden District Council since discovering that some of the council tax money is then illegally siphoned-off for use by the European Union to create a new regional authority under its control.
Mrs Beckett believes her rights under the British Constitution are being flouted because the local authority is attempting to coerce her into payment of the rates before she has had the opportunity to appeal the matter to a higher court.
She says she has received numerous letters from council officers and visits from bailiffs to her old vicarage home in Alston, Cumbria, where she has been threatened with forcible confiscation of her property and with bankruptcy

Mrs. Beckett, who was a District Officer’s wife in India, believes that adding onto local taxes the cost of illegal immigrants or local assemblies that are a link to the European Union, itself a body not allowed under our Constitution, is illegal. Money raised for local councils should be described as a service charge, not a Tax.

Mrs. Beckett says the adding to our Service Charges of other items stems from the 1911 Parliament Act when the Marxists, Socialists, Fabians and Sinn Fein and the Liberal Government under Asquith took the power of Taxation from the King and the scrutiny of the Lords, so that the party that gets into power can tax in any way they like without any supervision or control.


“That Act is to this day illegal, but the words used to destroy the Lords were the same words used to get rid of the Queen’s authority,” she said.

“Our Constitution is clear:
We the people hold the power (we are a democracy but we are also a Constitutional Monarchy) but for the power of Government and giving assent to Bills, we give the power known as the Royal Prerogative, to the Queen to govern. She governs in our name and according to the laws that we brought in to prevent her or the people in Parliament, from taking over power.
Unfortunately this has been done both in the 1911 Parliament Act and in the Reform of the Constitution Act of 2005 when Blair and Faulkner took over the power we had given to the Queen for her lifetime. They then gave to Parliament the right to decide on whether or not to go to war instead of putting the power under our laws that say we cannot go to war unless someone is attacking us.”

TREASON

Last week Mrs. Becket was told by a senior civil servant that Acts of Parliament now go straight into Law. They no longer require Royal Assent because the Queen’s agreement is automatic, due to Queen Anne being the last Monarch to refuse to accept a Bill passed by both Houses.
“This is not in fact true as both George III, Queen Victoria and Edward VII all sent Bills back. This is a very serious matter as it means that all Bills that have not had assent are in fact invalid. “What this government has done is take from the people their inherent power under the Constitutional Law. This is the birthright of the British people and their sovereignty under the Act of Settlement.”
The fact is that the British people are now fighting a ‘war from within.’


ENEMIES

The strategy of our enemies is:

To abolish the Monarchy and all ordered government.


To abolish private property.


To abolish patriotism and nationalism.


To abolish the family unit.


To abolish organised religion.

The intention is from there, to take over the world.

Namaste Notes

As we prepare to go to press, Mrs Beckett has informed us that she is summoned to appear in the Bankruptcy Court in Carlisle on Tuesday 24th July.


If the State is successful in procecuting her, despite her rights under the British Constitution, before she has the opportunity to appeal the matter to a higher court, they will enforce a bankruptcy order on her and confiscate her property, all of which is completely illegal and against Magna Carta.
Media coverage of Elizabeth’s case has been limited. The Politics’ Show of BBC Northeast requested an interview after seeing reports in the local press. Subsequently, however, its Producer flatly refused to allow the interviewer to air the full account of her case. What does that tell you?

Elizabeth asks that readers make a determined effort to understand our unique British Constitution, which was made by our ancestors, ordinary people who fought and gave their lives for the Magna Carta and other statutes. In fact it is stated in the Act of Settlement that these are the Birth Right of the People of Britain. As it was referred to by Lord Chatham (Pitt the Elder) “the Genius of our ancestors”. Our own Declaration of Rights were all contracts made between the people and the monarch and only later rubber stamped by Parliament. These statutes consist of the Magna Carta 1215, the Petition of Rights 1627, Bill of Rights 1689. These are available in the public libraries and direct from the House of Lords Records’ Office and some are on the internet.

The propaganda that we do not have a Consitution has been most successfully spread. In fact it was during the 1960’s and 1970’s that the Constitution was withdrawn from the British schools’ curriculum. Also, treason, the greatest of all crimes against a country and soveriegn is not taught even today in the universities of Britain. This indicates the deliberate intention to undermine the populace keeping us in ignorance of our inalienable rights. This is in itself, treason.
Important:

What you can do.

Write to your MP asking him/her to uphold our Constitutional laws (which are the backbone of of Britain), or best of all lobby him/her in the House of Commons.

Stop him/her agreeing to any more erosions of our Constitutional protections and tell everybody you know to do the same. This is critical!

Inform your local paper and radio station about the Constitution and ask why they are not reporting this government’s destruction of it.
Join the Campaign


We ask our readers to not only understand the seriousness of this matter with its grave implications for everyone in this country, but also to move to support Elizabeth by joining the campaign to raise the necessary funds in order to force a Declaration for a Judicial Review on the legitimacy of what the Government is intending to impose on the British nation, which is illegal - see  http://www.socfund.co.uk OR
Tel: TPUC 44 (0)1442 395461 also see  http://www.tpuc.org
A Call to Action to ‘STOP’ the proposed new EU Constitution, pledge your support.


BEWARE OF A REFERENDUM


We cannot rely on integrity of the voting system, nor on the soundness of the formulation of questions. e.g the referendum made by Harold Wilson’s Government, let alone Ted Heath’s chicanery.

UPDATE
Elizabeth appeared in court last week in Carlisle; there was only one journalist there even though her local press in Cumbria knew about her hearing. The only reporter that did turn-up, a freelance journalist, was turned away by the court and not allowed in the courtroom. In the hearing The Enforcement officer told the court that Elizabeth was summoned to court because she had not appealed. This is a lie. Elizabeth produced the evidence and the Judge has deferred the case till August 1st at 10am. The hearing will take place in Penrith. We ask readers who live in the area, if they can attend and support Elizabeth please do so.
Watch this space for further updates.
