By way of a simple experiment, I'm posting this (below) to see if anyone is bright enough to pick up on it, and make the connection with something else that's already posted not very far away on the forum pages, . . and will later be re-posted as a follow-up to this post :-
"In the course of the obiter dictum recorded in the transcript, HHJ Halbert went to some trouble to satisfy himself that Geoff Mayers fully understood that although his boat 'Pearl' was 'seized', lifted out of the canal near Northwich, transported by road to the Gloucester area, then impounded by C&RT's agents with the owner refused access, . . that he, Geoff Mayers, retained full unencumbered ownership and good title to the vessel, . . and that he was within his rights, and the law, to go and collect his boat at any time he wished to, reclaiming it from the C&RT agents who held it, unlawfully impounded, on C&RT's instructions.
This very useful, and difficult to argue with, item of Judicial opinion and legal guidance, was discovered by Nigel Moore and I whilst preparing a Defence to a 2014 C&RT County Court Claim for Declaratory and Injunctive Relief in respect of another boat (other than 'Pearl') that this so-called Trust had in its sights, . . with the intention of stealing."

As it happens a friend of mine is on one of the moorings in question. Just going for a cup of tea with him in a little bit. He is nearly 80 so past caring but its vaguely interesting to see what actually happens.
The EA can't fix locks, clear obstructions or even stop thousands of tonnes of shit going in the River so what will they actually do?.
They have been defunded.
