"Life meaning life" sentences breaches murder's human rights. Yep, commit murder, get sent down for life (and actually mean it) and its a "inhuman and degrading treatment". How out of touch can you get?! What happened to sanity?

I doubt that there will be much sign of normal common sense to be seen again.

If you did you'd have realised this article is nothing to get excited about. I quote:
"They have not said that anyone must be released, what they have said is that it must be reviewed."
So it clearly says the EU isn't saying you have to release lifers. Simply that each case has to be reviewed.

A lot of arrogance here.
These ECHR judges each have a lifetime of experience of dealing with humanity. There may be the odd old duffer but most of them will be infinitely wiser and more experienced than most on here. You may not agree, as is obvious, but just bear that in mind before posting some knee-jerk reaction.

You've completely missed the point. I never claimed that the ECHR wanted to release prisoners. My point is they are saying that it is inhumane and cruel to lock someone up for life with no chance of parole, to which I say that is madness. Someone does a heinous crime eg Yorkshire ripper then lock them up permanently
That's a million miles from letting someone out.
The scandal of this story is the 40k in costs one of the lawyers got.
