Hirst v Parliament, Executive and Judiciary

Hirst v Parliament, Executive and Judiciary

Article 1X of the Bill of Rights 1689

"That the freedom of speech and debates or proceedings in Parliament ought not to be impeached or questioned in any court or place out of Parliament"
.

I would argue that this, "questioned in any court or place out of Parliament", is not only unconstitutional but also incompatible with the Human Rights Act 1998; relying upon Article 10 of the European Convention.
