  I caught a little of a discussion on this on last night's Newsnight between the Tory 'Sven-lookalike' and the face of Liberty, Shami Chakrabarti.
  On the point Howard makes it was mentioned that Italy was fined all of about 2,000 Euros for a similar breach.
  The counter point that was made had to do with what message we might send to the ner-do-wells of our society by picking and choosing which courts and which laws we should abide by at a Government level.
  
  "We know who is to blame for the HRA and those who are blocking it replacement."
  
  Yes Barry, we do know, and it was us, at least the us that used to be, the us sickened by war and ready to put in place the beginnings of a more just future. Little did they know, these law makers, that after the sacrifice of combating Fascism in Europe and around the Globe that we would meet that same enemy again within our borders.
  The burglar may take umbrage at being shot at while about his chosen work, and Governments also may be piqued, but all must take it upon the chin.
  We have already heard a call for mob-justice to prevail in the locale over some perceived slight: Who knows who might be next?
