Rejecting the Rule of Law
Our lives are no longer subject to the rule of law.
This week the Court of First Instance of the Luxemburg based Court of Justice of the European Communities ruled that decisions of the United Nations Security Council take precedence over national constitutions, European law and even the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (ECHR). This ruling undermines the rule of law and the principles of the constitutional state and of democracy.So when an outside body makes a decision, our laws are overridden, no matter what we think as individuals or as a nation. Although undermining the rule of law is a prime objective of Tranzi’s everywhere, this is the most explicit decision like this that I have ever seen.
