ECHR and UK Politics: A Complex Landscape

This chapter provides an in-depth examination of the political dynamics surrounding the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in the UK, particularly amid rising calls from Tory members for withdrawal from the ECHR. It highlights the misconceptions about the ECHR's role in issues like immigration and military operations, while exploring the internal divisions within the Conservative Party on these matters. Ultimately, the chapter critiques the political discourse that oversimplifies the complexities of human rights law and its implications for national policies.
