Closed petition Opt out of the EU Human Rights Act
Closed on
The Human Rights act is becoming more of a joke day by day and continually allows criminals and other people who have never paid into the system in their life to make legal claims usually funded by the taxpayer. We should opt out of this legislation as soon as possible.
It is good for criminals and lawyers and often flies in the face of sensible public opinion
