My videos are quite over-simplified, so you do need to research further any regulations and legislation I mention in my videos.,  

I give my opinion on situations that may be of interest to those who  may feel disadvantaged through lack of access to information or knowledge that could be useful to them.  

My videos are particularly targeted at those who have difficulty understanding their rights, complex rules and regulations and feel vulnerable and could be criminalised because of it.

SOME BACKGROUND:

Blackbright News was founded in 2005.  It forms part of a philanthropic publication that comes out periodically, and is free to read online at www.issuu.com/blackbrightnews.  Hard copies of the publication are expensive to print, so I would use donations to supplement printing charges.
