This is a very important contribution on the MA and others judgment. On Monday, the Grand Chamber will decide on whether to hear the case again - this piece makes some very good arguments as to why it should.
On the new EHRLR issue, I comment on the recent ECtHR case MA v France on the criminalisation of the purchase of sexual acts.
