        @rossbrown7 @bbcbreaking Only if UK is not conducting effective investigations. The cases of Sgt Blackman & Cpl Payne would suggest UK is.

        @Thinking_Major @BBCBreaking As a global instrument, the ICC needs to be seen to acknowledge potential impunity globally - hence my comment.

        @rossbrown7 @bbcbreaking Agree, except the IPCC does not have global jurisdiction; jurisdiction only extends to those who signed up for it.

        @Thinking_Major @BBCBreaking UK is party. Also, jurdctn extends when alleged crimes are committed in state party & via UN referral.

        @rossbrown7 @bbcbreaking Key element of the Rome Statute is of course 'state party'; if the state is not party then no jurisdiction. 1/2
