The said stripey house

On the falfsification of Latin maxims.

The notion that, as they say, anus matronae parvae malas leges faciunt[1] was roundly routed as a general proposition in this great case in which decided that if an aggrieved lady wishes to paint her house with red and white stripes out of sheer bloody-mindedness, then at law she is entitled to do so, at least as far as s215 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 is concerned, and there is nothing the officious little pen pushers at the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea can do to stop her.
