    Representation of the People’s Act was there to prevent anyone from exercising more than one vote. So what do YOU think the decision was in Whitely v Chappell?

    Probably a coupon with items and prices identified would be an invitation

    I would think that He was acquitted if the literal rule was applied 1. his voted on behalf of his dead (who couldn’t have voted) and 2. he voted how his dead friend would have voted. However If the golden rule was used he would be found guilty. That’s what I understand from the noted and lecture…but I’m not clear which rule the case is used to support.

    The case supports the Golden Rule – and the golden rule trumps any and all other rules!

    Boiling this down to bare essentials, the courts can effectively make any interpretation they want if the application of (particularly) the literal rule leads to an absurdity
