Not saying it's right or wrong. I don't know. But, people who accept ECHR  can't really complain if it goes against them. Can they?

Just repeating an acronym isn't saying 'right' or 'wrong', it's literally saying nothing other than repeating an acronym.

What in the ECHR is the issue, here?

We've already been there, though, Rob.

The Government aren't (and I don't see how they're going to change this position other than being forced) going to do anything until the Supreme Court give their judgment. Even though the hearing is scheduled for next Tuesday, it's apparently unlikely to be laid down until the following week.

I can see a lot of MPs turning up tomorrow to make a point.

Article 8 private life home life and correspondence. Its about 150 pages long, so I don't know all the in's and outs.

I'd love it, tbh. It would be nothing more than a photo opportunity in the House of Commons, though, I think.

On the other hand, I gather, Cooper and her select committee ran an unnofficial version of it earlier taking evidence. The only problem is, as far as I can see, it won't be documented as official evidence.

Again, you can't just quote a headline and leave it at that.

This is nonsense. You have to explain why something is relevant rather than just shouting 'Article 8' and then **** off (as Cummings and his cohorts seem to have done).

It's interesting that you appear to be parroting the Tory HQ/Guido line.

I haven't just quoted a headline. I questioned whether it was legal. 

I didn't just shout article 8 and then eff off. I remember reading about article 8 a while back and remembered a few bits that;s all. 

You're last line appears to be  covered in Article 9 an individuals right to freedom of thought conscience and religion, Article 10 freedom of expression and Article 14 prohibition of discrimination.

You what? You haven't done anything other than say 'x' appears to be covered by Article 8/9/10/14.

Tell us how, please.

Again, you appear to have just said 'ooh, article 8', 'ooh, article 9', &c.

It's comically bad.

Tell me one way in which, in your view, something to which you object contravenes an article in the ECHR and HOW it does.

Once you do then we can discuss whether or not we think it does (obviously legal arguments might well be of more weight than our messageboard discussions).

Like I said it's about 150 pages of legal document's. it covers all those articles and then went on to say it's load of cock. If you are sure it's a load of cock check it out yourself.

Burden of proof is on you here. You said it's illegal

Ha ha ha.

You're the one who brought it up. It's incumbent upon you to make the case.

Surely you get that? :o
