 Lissingleys and the Meeting Place of Lindsey
It is argued that the -eg element in the name Lindsey, connoting 'island', was an early form which could not have referred to the area of Lindsey as a whole, as defined by the Witham and Trent fens, the Humber, and the North Sea, since the term is always used of small islands.
To the south-east the kingdom cannot have extended beyond the Witham at Billinghay, for that settlement was in the territory of the Billingas.
As part of the Viking kingdom of York until that date, Lindsey was untouched by West Saxon reforms introduced by Edward the Elder and Athelstan his son, and there is thus no reason why the ridings and their meeting place should not have been in existence from the earliest years of the viking settlement.

 Kingdom of Lindsey   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The ancient Kingdom of Lindissi or Lindsey is supposed to have existed in the fifth and sixth centuries, in the area of Lincolnshire, England long before the time of William the Conqueror (1066) and the advent of the Flemish Lindsays.
One of the most crucial factors which governed the emergence of such tribes or kingdoms in much of Dark Age Britain was the final withdrawal (408 AD) of the Roman legions from the provinces of Britannia and the eventual extinction of Roman imperial authority during the course of the fifth century.
The kingdom of Lindsey, for example, was eventually absorbed into the kingdom of Mercia by the middle of the eighth century, with its kings and their kin taken into the Mercian nobility.

 Hal Lindsey’s Prophetic Jigsaw Puzzle   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Lindsey’s prophetic scenario is no exception, as it is largely derived from the school of prophetic interpretation known as dispensationalism.
Lindsey’s popularity extends well beyond his own land, since The Late Great Planet Earth is said to have sold over 30 million copies in 31 foreign editions.5 “When Hal Lindsey appeared on television in the Netherlands,” writes Dr. Cornelis Vanderwaal, “it became clear that even sober Calvinists welcomed his dispensationalism with open arms.
Lindsey draws this conclusion from the parable of the “fig tree” given by Christ in His Olivet Discourse: “ From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near.

The fact that a British kingdom survived into the 7th century, though probably surrounded by English Northumbria, suggests that there may have been other British kingdoms among the early English kingdoms, and that the English conquest was not as wholesale as our fragmentary and later sources lead us to believe.
It may also be that Penda was systematically reducing the power of a kingdom which had flexed its muscles and shown that it might be a threat back in 616 when it had sent an army up to the Northumbrian border (presumably through eastern Mercia) and toppled the Northumbrian king (see Dumville, p.132).
The kingdom of Lindsey (probably the same as the Parts of Lindsey in modern Lincolnshire) was known to Bede, and though it fell alternately under Northumbrian and Mercian control in the 7th century, a surviving regnal list shows that it did at one time boast its own kings.

Those administrative remedies must be distinguished, in the United Kingdom, from applications for judicial review, whereby the legality of decisions of public authorities is subject to review by the ordinary courts, that is to say, the High Court of Justice (in England, Wales and Northern Ireland) and the Court of Session (in Scotland).
By contrast, the Government of the United Kingdom argues that Article 8 refers to remedies in general and the guarantee of the availability of judicial review is sufficient to comply with its provisions.
The costs incurred by the Governments of the United Kingdom and France, and the Commission of the European Communities, which have submitted observations to the Court, are not recoverable.
