Most of the recent legally, as opposed to factually interesting stuff pertains to the ECHR. This has become more relevant post the Human Rights Act, as persons can now rely upon the ECHR within the English legal system. There was initially panic that the Act would turn the forces into some sort of tree-hugging hippy commune, but this has proven unfounded. The ECHR contains some pretty hefty 'clawback clauses' that limit the application of rights within certain organisations.
