So. Would YOU Ever Believe Ken Clarke's Version?

'Britain's attempts to make radical changes to the European Court of Human Rights were in tatters last night after experts said they amounted to little more than ‘tinkering’.

But he was undermined by Sir Nicolas Bratza, the British judge who heads the Strasbourg court, who said proposals to rein it in significantly had been removed.

Instead, he said the court needed more money to get through its backlog of tens of thousands of cases.
