Li Yuefeng, a former national legislator and senior official with the Taiwan Democratic Self-Government League

China: Li Yuefeng – Taiwan Democratic Self-Government League – Sentenced to Life Imprisonment! (5.7.2025)

The court said Li was guilty of bribery and should be severely punished as the amount involved was “extremely large”, causing “extremely great losses” to the country and the people. However, it showed leniency in sentencing because Li voluntarily disclosed bribes unknown to investigators and returned illicit gains, and some bribes were unsuccessful.

Li, born in Chongqing in 1958, began his career in 1976 and joined the league in 2001. Founded in 1947, the league is one of eight non-Communist parties that participate in State affairs under the leadership of the Communist Party of China.

He worked as a lawyer in Chongqing’s procuratorial system for years. In March 2024, authorities placed him under investigation for alleged serious duty-related violations while he was serving as executive vice-chairman of the league and as a member of the Standing Committee of the 14th NPC, China’s top legislative body.

Li was removed from office and expelled from the league late last year. In March, prosecutors indicted him on bribery charges, leading to the trial in April.

Lambeth Council appear to be a law unto themselves - and to (allegedly) move with all the alacrity that free masonry can offer

Lambeth: Israeli-Linked Event – “Unlawful” to “Approved” in Just 48 hrs – Lambeth’s Magic Planning Trick “Green Lights” Brockwell Live! (23.5.2025)

The announcement, made late on Thursday, leaves virtually no time for meaningful public scrutiny or legal challenge, and has sparked renewed accusations that the Council is attempting to rush through contentious planning decisions under cover of urgency.

Residents were given just two days to object to the application – a dramatically shorter consultation window than normal – and campaigners say the newly approved certificate appears almost identical to the one ruled unlawful by the High Court just last week.

In its statement, Lambeth Council claimed the new certificate had been submitted “in a different context and format,” and insisted the current use of the park for summer events is now lawful.

Paper Letter - St Albans Road - Sutton

Sutton Council: 20mph Speed Zones and a “Loose” Definition of Democracy! (6.2.2025)

Apparently, everyone in our street received this missive from the London Borough of Sutton Council (LBS for short). I had heard rumours that a 20mph zone might be coming to our local area. However, at no time were we consulted about it in anyway. Now, according to Sutton Council, the consultation has been completed – and it is all going ahead. Really? Throughout the UK this policy has been greeted with a general sense of pure hatred. It would seem that driving 20mph is no safer than driving faster – and that the real motive behind this policy is simply to raise extra revenue in fines for Local Councils (a Tory initiative that Labour has not stopped).

PRC - South Africa Trial

Senior CPC Official Pledges to Strengthen China-South Africa Ties! (9.11.2024)

He said that the overwhelming victory and comprehensive consolidation of China’s anti-corruption campaign lie fundamentally in the centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee with Xi Jinping at its core and the adherence to the people-centered development philosophy.

This victory, he explained, was also achieved through China’s sustained high-pressure approach to fighting corruption, reinforced discipline and conduct, and coordinated measures that tackle corruption at all levels.

China is ready to enhance anti-corruption exchanges and cooperation with South Africa to jointly promote integrity building in Belt and Road cooperation, Li added.

The South African side commended China’s progress in anti-corruption efforts and expressed a keen interest in learning from China’s experience and deepening cooperation in this field.
