It's a funny video.

But it's also dumb and stupid, in the sense that the ECHR may hold these values, but it's not like it *introduced* those value to the UK.
And you don't have to take my word on that, they actually discuss this starting at 2:45 in this blooming video...???

Your video, What has the ECHR ever done for us?, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

Thought you might get a kick out of this http://videosift.com/video/What-has-the-ECHR-ever-done-for-us

On monday, the FIDH and others will file charges in several European countries against members of different governments as well the heads of intelligence agencies for espionage and whatnot. I'm rather curious about the specific charges made against French and German intelligence agencies. I suppose it'll be complacency or a failure-to-protect sort of accusation.

By the way, it's basically the same group that also initiated the case at the ECtHR, so this ought to be interesting.

And while we're at it, legal advice given to British MPs outlined that GCHQ's actions appear to be in gross violation of the ECHR. No shit, sherlock.

The ECHR just fast-tracked the case against GCHQ. Gonna be interesting.
