I've had to train myself not to have an apoplectic fit whenever I read that our legal eagles haven't managed to persuade EU judges that it's in Britain's interest to eject undesirables from our shores - can't they understand their own Human Rights document!
ARTICLE 8
Right to respect for private and family life
1.
Everyone has the right to respect for his private and family
life, his home and his correspondence.
2.
There shall be no interference by a public authority with the
exercise of this right
EXCEPT such as is in accordance with the
law and is necessary in a democratic society
in the interests of
national security, public safety or the economic wellbeing of the
country, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection
of health or morals, or for the protection of the rights and freedoms
of others.
