Definitely impressed me as a youngster that being treasonous was really *not* a good thing!

As far as the "gutter press" is concerned, (well all UK newspapers actually) the hanging drawing and quartering of George Galloways political reputation is already underway.

By tradition you are guilty until proved innocent.

p.s. there looks to be some shady looking deals, so the press hullabaloo is validated imho.

In "A Child's History of England" by Charles Dickens...there were all sorts of tales of what happened to those who crossed the King or Queen with treason.

I admit that's one I never read, but for me Heinrich Hoffmann's "Struwwelpeter" has got to be the classic nightmare inducer for little kids :-)
