“The Human Rights Act applies in the UK. That much is clear. Whether it applies outside of UK territory is a whole other question, and one for which we may have a new answer when the grand chamber of the European court of human rights (ECtHR) gives judgment in the case of Al-Skeini and others v the United Kingdom & Al-Jedda v the United Kingdom this week.”
