Petition Keep the UK's membership of the EU Convention on Human Rights

We should remain within the ECHR to protect our legal rights.

More details

Leaving the EU Convention on Human Rights means the UK population could be open to threats of a return to the death penalty, torture, no right to assembly, and could lose many acquired rights such as paid maternity/paternity leave, paid holiday leave, maximum working hours, union membership, appeal against unfair dismissal, and many others.
