As far as repealing the Human Rights Act is concerned I couldn't agree more, it should be repealed. Why you think it would turn the human rights clock back is something of a mystery. All Labours HRA did was give further rights and freedoms already guaranteed under the European Convention on Human Rights and is a charter for cowboy human rights lawyers. That's not true. The principal function of the HRA was to enable claimants to litigate in British courts rather than in Strasbourg.
The HRA itself confers no additional rights.
Labour took various bits of the ECHR which courts were not compelled to observe, and incorporated them into the HRA which courts are compelled to observe. |
