Dear Professor Keyzer,

You declare that
"1. only a court can make a binding and authoritative decision of law; 2. only a court can order the imprisonment of a person; and 3. punishment can only be ordered after a judicial trial."

Is this in the constitution or is it common law?

If common law then isn't it made null and void by legislation if the legislation is explicit in knowingly overriding the common law.
Ergo wasn't the Qld appellate court acting illegally in invalidating the legislation?

The first congressman to battle the NSA is
QUIETLY..dead. No-one noticed, no-one cares.

Last month, former Congressman Otis Pike died, and no one seemed to notice or care. That’s scary, because Pike led the House’s most intensive and threatening hearings into US intelligence community abuses, far more radical and revealing than the better-known Church Committee’s Senate hearings that took place at the same time.

That Pike could die today in total obscurity, during the peak of the Snowden NSA scandal, is, as they say, a “teachable moment” —one probably not lost on today’s already spineless political class.

god bless our heoes of liberty

@Edward Carson. You pose some very large questions to Professor Kayzer and I will not presume to answer them on his behalf. May I say very briefly that the law is found in both statute and common law (the constitution has a different role).

The Courts have long resisted, with good reason, attempts to oust their jurisdiction, and attempts by the legislature, whether Queensland or elsewhere, generally come to nought.

One ofd the dangers we face in Queensland was exemplified by the Premier who when asked about the doctrine of the separation of powers responded "isn't that some American thing". If he is truly so ignorant then be afraid, be very afraid.
