1. Whereas; R v Donovan (1934) 2 KB 498 at 507, (1934) All ER Rep 207 at 210.
In delivering the judgement of the Court of Criminal Appeal. Swift J, said:
“If an act is unlawful in the sense of being itself a criminal act, it is plain that it cannot be rendered lawful, because the person to whose detriment it is done, consents to it. No person can license another to commit a crime”.
Making the point that driving without government documents, license’s etc…
Cannot be ‘of it’s self criminal’… as the GOVERNMENT licenses these ‘Acts’ and therefore cannot be criminal;
And i: am; without evidence; knowledge or understanding that any evidence to the contrary exists.
