Richard Hermer QC and Helen Mountfield QC talk to Tatiana Glushkova, member of the Council of Memorial Human Rights Centre, and Jess Gavron, the Legal Director at European Human Rights Advocacy Centre regarding the recent events in Russia and the wider context of the rule of law. Many would agree that our global judiciaries should remain apolitical however in many authoritarian states there have been continued abuses of basic Human Rights. Richard and Helen also briefly comment on the UK Government's compliance with the rule of law and touch upon the rights to an abortion in the USA and Poland.
