Not just Howard's End

As we consider the Tories' policy to exempt certain people from certain parts of the human rights act as they see fit, let us look briefly at the Labour party's record on human rights. This includes:
* removal of trial by jury in certain cases;
* allowing the Home Secretary to decide who can be under indefinite arrest without charge;
* since that particular law didn't get through, they can only be held under house arrest, tagged and banned from using the telephone;
* imminent plans to ban protesting on Parliament Square without a permit;
* instigation of a politically elected supreme court;
* did I mention ignoring legal advice on sending thousands of troops into war?
These people have no shame: they want to disenfranchise us.
