Richardson P made it clear that political accountability is through elections, not fiduciary obligation. I think that would likely be followed without any doubt. There are occasions where an MP is entitled devote on their conscience, and it would be impossible to derive a fiduciary duty

I have no idea how that link attached to my post nor what it is for

It reminded me a little of Piranesi by Susanna Clarke, although the world you have built it seems to be rather bleak

You have left the question of good or evil ambiguous, which I think is appropriate. Is your level of morality dependent on your status within a society – as a minister or guard or ordinary person? if it depends on status, then I think the soul might change

I would love to buy from them, but at this time they don’t sell outside the US and UK. I did buy the kindle version and will review when finished

Please open to sales outside the US especially for e books. Some of us are not keen on the big company

Sila means ethics—following precepts, moral guidelines for how to live in community.
Bhavana means mental development—meditation and mindfulness practice.

Only if you want to, I feel like an examiner! There is a shortage of classical readers where I live

Did I understand your ideas? I’m always a bit diffident about that

Done a review

I tried them, but as yet they cannot send e books out of the US

I am trying to blame myself off the use of Amazon, but where I live it is difficult to get real books so I am reduced to getting Kindle versions, although that does make it very easy to buy them. A quiet Friday and with a book, but yes I am enjoying this new spin on Rome
