Indeed. As you may have noted, I am trying to get away from the "human 
rights" argument all the time. Still, it is very prominent in the (present 
version of the) Manifesto - so it needs to be adapted imho. If you also 
believe that human rights considerations are not very helpful (or even 
potentially detrimental) in PP politics, don't blame us for the debate, but 
get involved and support me in the perception that we should prefer other, 
less academic arguments - if only because there is actually an abundance of 
very convincing arguments of that type.
