Tony Blair is taking advantage of the flaws in his own administration - his failure to execute the law - to attack civil rights, the separation of powers and the independence of the courts.
Observer: "Tony Blair is planning a radical overhaul of Britain's controversial human rights legislation after claims that the present laws put the rights of criminals above those of victims.
In a move which brought immediate criticism from human rights' experts, the Prime Minister wants the government to have the power to override court rulings. The move comes only days after Blair criticised a senior judge for preventing the deportation of nine Afghan refugees who hijacked a plane to Britain. Downing Street said he was determined to find a way around such 'barmy' court rulings."
Why should the 'judgement' of one 'barmy' war criminal be better than the judgement by court judges?
