The Government may not infringe your human rights.

I just did.

The Government may not infringe your human rights.

Oh look; https://www.lawsociety.ie/News/News/Stories/brexit-human-rights-and-the-good-friday-agreement

That’s is not what ‘magna carta’ says, if you had ever read ‘magna carta’ you would know that.

You’ve read ‘magna carta’ haven’t you? Do remember the bit about forbidding banishment overseas?

Have we got to the bit where supporters of this ‘appalling’ policy are baying in support of the Government stripping them of the protections they themselves enjoy from the ECHR?

I don’t think your arrest record is the subject of discussion.

You’re still waiting for the the load.

They can only do so in compliance with the law. Government are not above the law.

The Government enact an ill conceived failing policy. It’s the Government’s fault.

Why would an Afghani in Kabul be talking to a Ukrainian about UK council house waiting lists? That doesn’t make any sense at all.

I think it’s building up more public opinion that the Government doesn’t know what it’s doing.

So the flight left, loaded with refugees then? I missed that!

It’s difficult not to see this whole debacle as an example of a Government unable to produce workable policies. A totally unnecessary mess of their own making.

And there will be more appeals. Of course the Government could wait until the full judicial review next month but that would be far too sensible.

Same result.

Perhaps I’d recognize the failure of a twelve year Government to provide affordable housing, and not blame people in need,

I see you’ve not been keeping up with the news lately.

The ECHR is there to adjudicate matters arising within signatory nation courts with respect to compliance with the European Convention on Human Rights. The UK is a signatory to the European Convention on Human Rights and played a leading role in its drafting and establishment. These are matters for which the UK may be justly proud. Please, I urge you, spend some time to read about the history of these institutions, how they operate and how UK law relates to the Convention.

While seemingly forgetting that they themselves are protected by human rights law.

Sometimes I wonder, I really do.

But the UK has complied, the flight has been cancelled.

So you’ve got no facts to use in reasoned arguments then.

Clearly you do not understand what Article 27 of the Vienna Convention means. ”Article 27 Internal law and observance of treaties A party may not invoke the provisions of its internal law as justification for its failure to perform a treaty. This rule is without prejudice to article 46.”
