The liberal elite who are congratulating themselves at this moment might just ponder on the revolution that resulted in Brexit and Trump. We escaped at the last election because people thought that someone young, fresh and untainted by political duplicity might give us something different. The French recently tried the same thing. Perhaps they will have better luck than us.
Human rights above all else will be the death of democracy. Small groups of determined individuals with agendas now run this country. This case succeeded because a lawyer with an obsession worked for free all the way to the Supreme court to prove that even a terrorist has rights. He succeeded, but at what cost? There are thousands of veterans out there addicted to drugs or disabled for life. Why is this convicted terrorist from a family of terrorists more deserving than they? The Charter of rights and freedoms has just kicked them all in the teeth.
Justify it all you want, but it is wrong. Very wrong.
