May says she was 'crazy' with the ECHR over Qatada

Home Secretary Theresa May told the Conservative Party conference that when Abu Qatada finally got on the plane to be deported, she was told that he asked: "Is Crazy May flying with me?"

Ms May told delegates: "I admit I was crazy - crazy with the European Court of Human Rights, and I know I wasn't the only one.

"We were told time and time again that thanks to human rights law, we couldn't deport him."
