Will weakening human rights really stop the far right? – The Latest
About this episode
Keir Starmer has called on European leaders to urgently reform human rights laws so that member states can take tougher action to protect their borders and see off the rise of the populist right across the continent. But Labour has been condemned by campaigners and MPs who argue these proposals could lead to countries abandoning the world’s most vulnerable people and further demonise refugees. Lucy Hough speaks to the Guardian’s political editor and host of Politics Weekly, Pippa Crerar – Watch on YouTube. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/infocus
