Quotes-start.png "The hope that the Act would somehow transform the national political consciousness into being consistently centred on a benign principle of inalienable "rights" has well and truly evaporated. What has emerged instead is a legalistic nightmare, in which one perverse consequence follows another. The Government now finds itself in the bizarre position of having to appeal against rulings forced upon it by its own legislation." Quotes-end.png
