No, not "because EU". Only one of the claimants' several arguments concerned EU law. What the judge called "Issue VI" -- which was "Does the introduction of Section 28B constitute unlawful State aid within the meaning of Article 107 TFEU which was not notified to the Commission under Article 108(3) TFEU and so is unlawful?".
both the British and the Argentinian populace was fully in support of the war.
I don't know about Argentina, but while the UK population was mostly in support, but far from "fully". Many people objected to the military "task force", and said so, loud and long.
PayPal requires a government issued photo ID for all but the most trivial uses.
In the UK (where this trial is taking place) PayPal doesn't "require a government issued photo ID" for any purpose. It's not required by UK anti-money laundering legislation. And there is no "government issued photo ID" in the UK.. And no, we don't use our driving licences for this purpose. And no, we aren't required to carry our driving licences when we're driving.
I don't know of too many non-management salaried fields, period, that match what a decently-paid IT "veteran" can earn that do not absolutely a degree in the field.
This is very true. And even in degree-required jobs there's not a lot of time left to get to the high-paying gigs. I'm currently moving from a 25 year career in IT (MSc in CompSci, compiler writer) to law, and it's unlikely that in the time I have remaining before retirement (or death) that I'll ever reach the salary I gave up. And that even before I factor in the cost of the degree...
The EU court has no power to strike down UK laws, and certainly has no jurisdiction over police powers, or criminal law (not yet, anyway). Perhaps you were thinking of the European Court of Human rights, who can declare laws to be incompatible with the European Convention of Human Rights (incorporated directly into UK law by the Human Rights Act) - but even they cannot strike down laws.
Only if it was with intent to obtain something in return. If it was truly gratuitous, and of trifling value, then it would be OK.
Anyway, it's not just cops,pretty much the same prohibition on bribery applies to almost everyone now, thanks to the Bribery Act 2010 (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2010/23/contents).
The trial of other people accused of the same crime was still ongoing, on which she was a juror, which is why it was contempt for contacting the acquitted party.

This is already being seriously proposed for English schools, but it's still unclear where they are going to find the teachers who understand enough about CS and programming to deliver the classes.
"In the EU we have the further problem that member states can apply for arrest warrants after convicting people in their absence"
Are you quite sure about that? Don't most (all?) EU countries hold that trials in the absence of the accused are a violation of Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights? The EU arrest warrant, and resulting extradition, is so easily available it's hard to see why an EU country would ever have recourse to try someone in their absence if they knew them to be in another EU country.
"On the contrary" to what? Everything I wrote is totally, 100%, correct.
Anyway, the only substantive changes the HRA made were (a) to allow the pleading of Convention rights cases in the UK courts (rather than pursuing them in Luxembourg), and (b) to require the UK judiciary to take Convention rights, and ECtHR jurisprudence, into account in reaching their judgements.
The ECHR may, or may not, be "vague and littered with exceptions", but it does not come from the EU - it's the product of the Council of Europe, which was formed in 1949, and of which the UK is a founder member.
There are two, quite distinct, legal Europes - the European Union, and the Council of Europe.
The EU has 27 members, the CoE has 47.
The EU court is the Court of Justice of the European Union, which sits in Luxembourg. The CoE's court, the European Court of Human Rights, sits in Strasbourg.
Junior lecturers (assistant professor in US-speak) in the UK start on about the same -- and they will normally have PhDs. It's not a bad salary for a recent graduate, which seems to be what Hawking is looking for.
. If you took another picture at that point you would be trespassing and and since that is an indictable offence they could actually arrest you at that point and hold you for the police.
This is not the case in Scotland, where the events took place. There, trespass is not an indictable offence (it's a civil delict), and, even if it were, the rights of non-police to detain people is very limited, especially if force is required.

And now I'm expected to foot the bill for a year while they "find themselves" in Europe, Africa or Tibet?
Yeah, that's why gap years aren't actually a "British tradition" - they're an "upper middle class British tradition".

"The Tomorrow People" wasn't BBC show - as the wiki you linked to says, it was "Produced by Thames Television for the ITV Network".
Adam Smith was a professor at Glasgow University, but he came from, and went back to, Fife.

In the UK it's flat-out illegal to pay police officers for anything related to their being police officers, be that information, favours, or whatever.
The trial of other people accused of the same crime was still ongoing, on which she was a juror, which is why it was contempt for contacting the acquitted party.

In England, a juror was jailed last year for communicating with an acquitted defendant on Facebook: http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2011/jun/16/facebook-juror-jailed-for-eight-months
And another was jailed last week for researching the defendant on the internet generally: http://www.guardian.co.uk/law/2012/jan/23/juror-contempt-court-online-research

Easy £50K for an EE? You're not talking about the the UK, are you?
So, it's totally irrelevant to a job based in the UK.
It's more or less the average wage in the UK.

the police told him they were entitled to confiscate his phone (under anti-terrorism legislation)
Which, for the record, he had no power to do, under anti-terrorism legislation, or any other provision.
