Imelda May- an Irish singer-songwriter discovered by Jools Holland. Jury free rape trials in Scotland? Choosing to live in a van.Imelda May is an Irish singer/songwriter discovered by Jools Holland when she supported him on tour and subsequently appeared on Later ... with Jools Holland in 2008. She was the queen of rockabilly, with a Fifties-style frock, trademark quiff – and a voice compared to legendary blues singers such as Billie Holiday and Sarah Vaughan. The quiff is long gone.
A review into the way the justice system works in Scotland, when hearing rape and serious sexual offences, has called for new specialist courts where a judge could sit without a jury. The proposals are part of a package of measures aimed at stopping the 'retraumatisation' of victims by their experience of the court system.
The idea of living in a van is not an unusual as you may think and many women are doing it. Search under the #vanlife on Instagram and there are over 9.5 million posts, with seductive photos of people who have refurbished cosy vans for holidays and adventures abroad but also those who have traded living in houses for a permanent life on the road.
Loved this feature today. Glad you asked about bathrooms and showers. I was thinking about wardrobes too. itsanitarani if you decide to try it, I’d gladly look after the clothes you couldn’t fit in the van- just sayin
While promoting van life you should ask how these people can park in growing numbers without negatively impact the communities and environments where they chose to live.
Between the policing Bill and brexit I'm not sure vanlife is going to offer much freedom in the future.
