The European Court of Human Rights has nothing to do with the European Union.

The ECHR was formed as part of the Council of Europe in the aftermath of WW2 and was predominantly championed by that obviously Marxist enemy of the British people, err, Winston Churchill. Its goal is to protect people in Europe from tyrannical and fascist governments. A particularly appropriate role when dealing with the current Tories.

It is the cornerstone of the "Never Again" consensus which has reigned throughout Europe since 1945.
