The ECHR has championed LBGT and every other minorities wrongly differentiated against by laws, rules of Public authorities and national Courts and numerous other discriminations in the 47 member States of the Council of Europe since the 1950's.
As I have pointed out the ECHR can not bring a case against the EU because the EU failed accession which goes back to 1974 after France, the final EU member state that ratified the ECHR ....
The EU is growing and has and may well include eastern European nations, Turkey, and who knows the nations the future may bring ...
The UK is very liberal, whatever people try to make out, but even if they violate a minorities human rights they have the ECHR .... But the EU has or will have some member states that are unlikely to be any where near as liberal as the UK .... They will be voting on issues that can Direct the UK to violate the ECHR .... and as I said the EU can not be ruled on by the ECHR ...
I have provided an example for the above, although the principle I tried to point out was not taken seriously ...
In addition to the above ... Consider the list below and then consider whether a minority especially LGBT community should be happy to put their Human Rights in the hands of all the list below?
And then note the EU Commission lump unpopular directives in with desired directives to get unpopular directives passed ...
Then Consider those Directives are free from ECHR Judgement ....
Are we being so unreasonable?
