This chapter explores the view of the European Court of Human Rights on the legislative process. It discusses the argument that the Court has a wider political agenda and has emancipated itself from the text of the convention. The chapter also proposes the idea of substituting the European Convention with an identical text but with responsible interpretation.
Former Supreme Court judge, and celebrated historian of The Hundred Years War, Jonathan Sumption joins UnHerd’s Freddie Sayers to discuss continental entanglements past and present, and the disrupted civil and international order we face today.
