‘When the Conservative Party elected Liz Truss to be its leader in 2022, was it exercising a “public function” for the purposes of section 6 of the Human Rights Act, and was it therefore amenable to challenge under that Act? This was the question for the Court of Appeal in R (Tortoise Media) v Conservative Party [2025] EWCA Civ 673 (23 May 2025).’
