Would I be a cynic to suggest the Tory attacks on the ECHR and HRA were a response to negative print media publicity using cases involving very unpopular defendants (terror suspects and prisoners for example)? Would it also be cynical of me to suggest tabloids only began this campaign when a body of privacy case law was being established. Now the ECHR maybe the last line of defence against Leveson you may notice anti-ECHR/HRA stories have subsided.
