The wrongs of human rights.
From October, the Human Rights Act will be enforceable in the UK and lawyers are conscious of the potential of using the act to support their arguments - however tenuous - much to the judiciary's displeasure.
Echoing the words of Skinner and Baddiel's football anthem Threelions on a shirt, the Government has been trying to tell us all since
November 1998 that human rights are "comin' home".
From 2 October 2000, rights contained in the European Convention of Human
Rights and enshrined in our Human Rights Act 1998 will be directly
enforceable in the UK and not via Strasbourg.
