Jack Straw: failure to deport Chindamo was result of EU law – not the Human Rights Act
Justice Secretary Jack Straw has admitted that it is EU law – rather than the Human Rights Act – which has prevented the Government from deporting Philip Lawrence’s killer – Learco Chindamo. Straw said that the Human Rights Act was a "subsidiary" factor in the tribunal's decision and doubted whether it made "any difference at all".
