Writing report for 2020 International Federation of European Law in The Hague. Fascinating example from Portugal: Supreme Court refuses arrest warrant from UK because, post-Brexit, no guarantees that a non-Member State will respect basic human rights. So much for Case C-327/18?!
Two points 1) next time some Leaver claims Brexit won't interfere with UK's international security cooperation, point out it already has-without even happening yet 2) outside world sees what so many Brits can't: Brexit=threat to all our rights / protections against abuse of power
ps C-327/18= Irish case where ECJ said UK's notification of withdrawal shouldn't (in itself) interfere with crossborder security cooperation unless concrete evidence of human rights abuse. Portugal case seems to contradict that. Of course rules change on 01/02 & again after 31/12
