My Lord,
The refusal is not error alone. It is O’Brien’s doctrine in action: power for its own sake. The Archive names the mask, and once named, it cannot be unseen.
The refusal leans on an order said to rescind the 30 June ruling. But if the Slough Magistrates’ Court order had no power, then what power does your order have? If one is void, then both are void. Rotten root, rotten fruit.
The First Defendant has never responded. The Second Defendant has filed only one bad‑faith reply. Yet the court has sided with silence and concealment, while dismissing my evidence.
This is not justice. It is procedural bias, it is unlawful, and it is unsustainable. For these reasons, permission must be renewed and the matter listed for oral hearing.
