-----regarding the European Court of Human Rights. We have also mentioned the European Court of Justice in this House before now. All of these bodies intrude into domestic situations here. I am always flabbergasted by people, whom one would regard as logical and sensible, who argue for human rights on the one hand, but have no difficulty at all in abrogating the rights of people to the most fundamental right of all, which is the right to life. We had it on the Criminal Justice (Amendment) Bill yesterday and have it in this whole area.
