The Swiss Parliament has rejected a 'landmark' climate ruling from the European Court of Human Rights that claimed the country's climate policies breached its citizens' rights by being insufficiently severe.
Rishi Sunak has once again been dropping hints about leaving the European Convention on Human Rights. This is not credible, says Dr David McGrogan: such a feat would require a Government far more serious than this one.
New Labour's Equality Act embedded identity politics into our public institutions and paved the way for the ideological capture of our schools, civil service and NHS, says Tory MP Miriam Cates. It needs an overhaul.
Former Supreme Court Justice and anti-lockdown legend Jonathan Sumption has made the case for leaving the European Convention on Human Rights – all the more remarkable as a Remainer on Brexit.
Human rights advocates in the UN seem to have become obsessed with the cause of decriminalising and normalising the sex trade, writes Dr David McGrogan.
The British Bill of Rights will sort out a number of the problems created by Blair's ill-conceived Human Rights Act and ensure the sovereignty of Parliament is accorded much greater respect by judges.
The new Bill of Rights is a disappointment. It won't rein in the judges, just empower British ones at the expense of European ones. It does little about the undermining of parliamentary sovereignty by the lawyerly caste.
