"Wirral Council is taking Roger Hayes to Birkenhead county court for non-payment of council tax.<br /><br />Mr Hayes, chairman of The British Constitution Group, claims the council tax is illegal and imposed without his consent.<br /><br />His stand has won support from all over the country, and demonstrators travelled miles to protest outside the court building.<br /><br />But, as judge Michael Peake tried to get the case under way, Mr Hayes repeatedly demanded whether he was "on oath of office".<br /><br />Judge Peake insisted it was a "properly constituted court", and said if Mr Hayes had a complaint it was an issue he could take up later.<br /><br />But Mr Hayes again asked if he was on oath of office and when he did not get an answer he was happy with, said: "Sir, I am obliged to arrest you for contempt of court and treason."<br /><br />Two supporters of Mr Hayes then attempted to make the arrest but were stopped by police."<br /><br />People of this land unite together for justice in peaceful lawful rebellion.
