Calls to quit the European Convention on Human Rights are ‘troubling’ and ‘unnecessary’, former Supreme Court president Lady Hale said last night - suggesting that the government listen to the Green Party on 'concerns of real people'.
Hale was speaking at a panel discussion entitled ‘Protecting the ECHR and the rule of law’ at the London headquarters of campaign group Liberty alongside former Liberty director and now Labour peer Shami Chakrabarti.
