Sean Winterbottom does not like politics. But like all people who do not like politics, once he starts talking about it, he has a lot to say. Last general election I voted Conservative, but I dont know for this one. They all just spin you whatever they want to spin you, he said, leaning over the counter in the plumbers merchant on the high street in Glossop where he works.

He was left in a coma, endured four brain operations, lost his sense of smell and taste and, to this day, has no memory of his family or friends.His assailants, four of whom were convicted and sentenced to four years in November, were only brought to justice through the European arrest warrant EAW which delivered them to a Cretan court.Campaigners are concerned by the government s intention to opt out of 130 EU police and justice measures, including the EAW, as part of its repatriation of powers. The home secretary Theresa May, in particular, wants to pursue that agenda, citing how Britons can currently be extradited for trial abroad without evidence being heard in British courts.In respons
