moon Posted October 4, 2004 Report Share Posted October 4, 2004 Today is a very important day for freedom and decency. The British law lords, supreme in the country of the Mother of Parliaments, will begin deliberations to assess whether torture is acceptable. The issue might be dressed up differently, but that is the crux of the matter. Good luck, Poms. You've got worldwide respect in the areas of human rights, despite your beer. The law lords will also consider whether evidence against detainees obtained by torture of a third party should be admissible in hearings.http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/3712318.stmthe UK is the only country to have opted out of Article 5 of the European Convention of Human Rights, guaranteeing the right to liberty, in the aftermath of the 11 September 2001.
