Iain Duncan SmithGUEST
But the main reason for all of that was their fear about the, um, the legal processes, which is again, leads to the next point, which we should have committed to.
Iain Duncan SmithGUEST
We're committed now, thanks to Kemi, uh, which is to get rid of the, um, the, uh, f- uh, human rights c- uh, c- uh, courts, uh, uh, ECHR, uh, in, uh, in Europe, and, and that's... then couldn't be used by courts here in the UK.
Iain Duncan SmithGUEST
To basically say that they're going to challenge what the governments do.
Iain Duncan SmithGUEST
Government's elected to take decisions, they should take those decisions, and I don't think in this instance the court should have anything to do with it.

Sarah PochinGUEST
The kids can't walk home from school.
Sarah PochinGUEST
It's not right, so we must stop accepting it.
Sarah PochinGUEST
The Andy Burnham will never, ever come out of the ECHR.
Sarah PochinGUEST
He will never, ever stop the boats.
BeauHOST
That's what needs to happen.
BeauHOST
But if people start talking about leaving the ECHR or mass re-migration, the Daily Express tries to destroy them.
BeauHOST
And yet here they are.
BeauHOST
And yet here they are pretending they care.
Julia Hartley-BrewerHOST
Yeah.
Ian DarbyGUEST
Yeah? Now, we understand legally why that can't happen because the ECHR rules and everything else, but that is our, you know, one of the massive issues is the security for our people.
Julia Hartley-BrewerHOST
Yeah.
Ian DarbyGUEST
Uh, and if that were dealt with, I think we would feel differently.
Isabel OakeshottGUEST
You know, we- we'll, we'll hand that back because, uh, we're, we're prepared to abide by an administration that changes the rules retrospectively out of pure political envy and spite."
Ian CollinsHOST
I also notice, uh, that article said that, uh, La- Labour's, uh, favorite go-to law, Article 7 of the European Convention of Human Rights, there they are, uh, bans retrospective criminal laws.
Ian CollinsHOST
So I g- no doubt some of those tasty lawyers will be straight on the case if that is, if that is how this would apply in this, uh, situation.
Isabel OakeshottGUEST
Yeah, I mean, I think we are probably heading for the mother of all showdowns.
Paul BarlowHOST
And there are exemptions there as well for things like honest errors, as long as that mistake's corrected as soon as possible.
Paul BarlowHOST
There's also free speech safeguards that are built into place with the laws under the European Convention on Human Rights to deal only with explicit, provable lies.
Paul BarlowHOST
Breaking this law would result in fines, a criminal record, and disqualification from running for the Welsh Parliament or Senedd for four years.
Paul BarlowHOST
The second law change out there is actually from those bastards who recently beat the All Blacks, South Africa.
Thomas KaratHOST
Yeah,
Tony GreensteinGUEST
I mean, the European Convention of Human Rights has been torn up.
Tony GreensteinGUEST
Article 10, the right to free speech.
Tony GreensteinGUEST
Article 11, freedom of association, they're being observed in the breach.
John DavisHOST
It converted lawful political speech, journalism, translation, interviews, and international political collaboration into supposed evidence of treason by attaching a criminal meaning to socialist opposition to the war.
John DavisHOST
The appeal also invokes Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights, citing European Court of Human Rights case law.
John DavisHOST
It argues that political speech, including views that quote offend, shock or disturb, unquote the state, is entitled to particularly strong protection.
John DavisHOST
Instead of applying these principles, the trial court treated, quote, departures from the official political narrative as evidence of subversion, unquote.
Tim WilsonGUEST
We're going to stop this.
Tim WilsonGUEST
We're going to stop that ECHR and chemist stuff as well.
Tim WilsonGUEST
All this rejection.
Tim WilsonGUEST
Rejecting something doesn't create something.
Rafe Heydel-MankooHOST
not roses where we are either.
Rafe Heydel-MankooHOST
But I take your point, right? It is the fault of the government not to get rid of the Human Rights Act, keep us in the ECHR, et cetera, et cetera.
Rafe Heydel-MankooHOST
I think we should remove ourselves from the UN Convention on Refugees 1951 and call for another international convention.
Rafe Heydel-MankooHOST
But the point is there is still, I mean, Dominic Cummings has identified the civil service as an obstacle.
