in England we cannot even do a 'land grab' for the land which has illegally been taken over by pikey scum
so why should another country be able to do a land grab for houses that have been legitimately bought....

Originally posted by vetran View PostProperty rights are fairly fundamental, if the EU can't manage that then its not much use.
What's being done to those people appears to be very unjust indeed and utterly wrong, but perhaps the EU law is actually their only protection against what the Portuguese government is doing. Or perhaps the European Convention on Human Rights (which is not an EU thingummy).
They could take the EU Charter route, or outside the EU, the European Convention on Human Rights, European Convention on Human Rights - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia depending on what the fully qualified lawyer says gives them the best chance, instead of simply believing a ´trainee barrister´.
I don't know what the Portuguese constitution has to say about this, so I don't know if that's an option for them.Last edited by Mich the Tester; 13 May 2014, 14:36.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment
