One of Britain’s most senior judges has criticised the impact of human rights laws as he threw out a rapist's attempt to claim compensation over the state of his lavatory.
Lord Justice Davis said it was “more or less unthinkable” that such cases would have “troubled” the courts before the recent boom in human rights litigation.
He dismissed the claims by Desmond Grant about “slopping out” as based on “unreality”, adding that there was even an ample supply of air fresheners for prisoners.
