289. The ghosts of Hampden,Pym and Eliot should haunt Parliament today

Members of Parliament are heirs to a great tradition. Some of our predecessors took great personal risks to defend and extend the liberties of Englishmen and women. They fought to prevent the executive government, the Crown, exercising too much arbitrary power at the expense of the people.Today we need to remember that when Parliament debates whether important matters of criminal justice, recently repatriated to UK control, should be surrendered to the EU. John Hampden, John Pym and John Eliot fought against a Crown which wanted to presume to itself the power to tax without reference to the grievances and rights of those paying the bills. They fought to uphold the right of Parliament to fashion the law and ensure its fair enforcement. John Eliot died prematurely from his stay in prison for refusing to accept Ship money. John Hampden died of his wounds in an early battle of the civil war. Their cause was just and ultimately upheld.Today the threat to our liberties and right of self government comes not from the Crown but from the EU.

299. Center for Consumer Freedom – No Brotherly Love for Soda Taxes

After two years of abortive attempts to place taxes on sugary drinks, Philadelphia Mayor and soon-to-be Center for Science in the Public Interest summit speaker Michael Nutter appears to have kicked the taxing habit – for now. After the Pew Charitable Trusts’ Philadelphia Research Initiative released a poll showing that 70 percent of Philadelphians thought that the city’s tax burden was a “very serious” or “somewhat serious” problem, Nutter’s spokesman said, “The mayor has no intention of requesting a tax increase.”We hope that the mayor’s newfound fiscal restraint is sincere. His go-to proposal, a 24-cent tax on every can of soda, has been rejected twice by the City Council, and the Pew poll showed that Philadelphians are not clamoring to see their drinks taxed.
