This e-book examines, considers and discusses some of the issues revolving around the implementation and political obstacles, in connection with human rights protections afforded via the international jurisprudence of Articles 1 to 18 and 46 of the ECHR 1950. Specifically, in the context of the Anglo-Irish / NI conflict 1968-1998. This e-book is in three parts. Part one attempts to cover human rights protections under articles 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 ECHR 1950. In particular, the right to life, killing events of “Bloody Sunday” in Derry 1972 and in Ballymurphy in Belfast. Articles 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8 issues emanating out of HMG’s decisions and actions, in relation to internment without trial, the emergency scheduled criminal offences, supported by the Special Diplock Courts. The denial of the right of a Northern Irish British Subject, to be tried in a properly constituted criminal court, with a judge and jury; and the non emergency pre charge procedures and evidential and disclosure rights of an accused, who has not been charged with membership of a proscribed unlawful organisation? It is noteworthy, that upwards of 90% of those convicted of NI conflict related offences, via the Special Diplock Courts, were not charged with membership of a proscribed unlawful organisation? Moreover, during the period of August 1971 to April 1977, a duel system of internment without trial and emergency scheduled criminal offences operated simultaneously? This may have been unlawful in real time? The denial of civil rights included the delay of the 1964 revised judges rules into the law of Northern Ireland until Oct 1976? This has raised serious Article 3 issues and Articles 5 and 6 consequences? The activation of the revised 1964 judges rules was in any event for the most part selectively circumvented by the emergency provisions, in that suspects were still denied access to a solicitor or an appropriate adult? In this connection, there were also RUC and British Army legally held firearm and firearm exhibits, issues? HMG policy of “Criminalisation” supported by the British Conservative PM mantra “a crime is a crime, is crime” also has had significant Article 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 12, 13, 14 and 17 and 18 potential ECHR 1950 human rights violation consequences. It is also important to note that Article 15 derogations do not apply to Articles 2, 3 and 7 and in certain circumstances, for example where violations of Article 5 and 6, 17 and 18 are linked in conjunction Articles 2, 3 and 7.
