Disgraceful. Only a huge public show of support in the UK, plus a change of government, can help them now.

What about the European court of human rights can they not appeal to them after the HofL? After all they've much more of a human rights case than some of these bloody criminals that get thousands out of the government.
I have dual Oz/UK citizenship, as my entire family up to myself were born in the UK. Despite this I have not lived there and I don't understand how the European and British legal systems come together.
Would the European court of human rights have juristiction and would the British government have to comply if it found in favour of the Chargos Islanders?
