    Your example is poor. A Minister influencing the courts is totally different to Parliament exercising a power it legitimately has.

    Identify your target beyond all doubt because you never miss (right?) and I'll be missed.
    No. Our parliament can not over rule Court decisions. But the Crown can appeal court decisions and can lose.
    All our Parliament can do is change legislation that affects the application of the law, albeit sometimes retrospectively.
    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.
