Rejected petition Repeal the human rights act 1998

Why should this country be told by Europe what laws are allowed and what are not. Nobody in this country has voted for these judges. All of these people are appointed this is not democratic and there is no accountability. This act is a mill stone around this country’s neck and need to be removed.
