The refugee crisis dishonours the memory of the holocaust | Owen Jones meets Shami Chakrabarti

Shami Chakrabarti tells me that David Cameron's language and the UK government's treatment of refugees dishonours the refugee convention and the memory of the holocaust. Shami Chakrabarti reveals that Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, amongst others, tried to woo her politically during her tenure as the director of Liberty, the role she recently left after more than a decade at the helm. We also discussed whether we'd be better off with British Bill of Rights to replace the Human Rights Act and her work in fighting for your civil liberties.
