Britain will scrap the Human Rights Act in 2015

[quote]The Conservatives will scrap the Human Rights Act if they win the next general election, the home secretary has said. Theresa May told an event organised by the Conservative Home site the act must not interfere with the UK's ability to fight crime and control immigration. She said it restricted "our ability to act in the national interest". A private poll by ex-party treasurer Lord Ashcroft, meanwhile, suggested the party would lose 93 marginal seats to Labour if the election was held now.[/quote] I guess it could do with a tune up but to get rid of it completely? Don't get me wrong I don't think a terrorist who has a "right to a family" because he owns a cat should be allowed to stay but how far could they go with this? England invented the Human rights that everybody abides by and now we are going to scrap it for the ideals of this idiotic political party? Thank god they won't be re-elected. Do you support a re-write or just scrap it?

  • Don't know what human rights England invented because as far as I know the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as written by the United Nations was lead by by France, China, Canada, Lebanon and headed by FDR's wife. Was England's a law? Don't know anything about it, but by principle it sounds bad to abolish anything called the Human Rights Act.
