Migrants who had concerns about the Bibby Stockholm were told to 'f*** off back to France' by one senior Tory
In his first speech as Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak said his government would have “integrity, professionalism and accountability” at every level. The Convention has been with us since 1950. Drafted in the wake of the Second World War, it focuses primarily on civil and political rights: there’s the right to life and the right to be free of inhuman and degrading treatment – there’s free expression, freedom of thought and religion, fair trials, the protection of liberty, privacy .
In the absence of enforceable human rights, Britain had a legal culture of arbitrary power, judicial deference to the executive and to police forces exercising vague, inaccessible, undefined common law powers. There was effectively no legislation governing police use of wiretaps, listening devices and surveillance before these arbitrary powers were challenged on Convention grounds.
