Rejected petition Change the Europen Convention on Human Rights

Amend the European Convention on Human Rights to allow for the safe and swift deportation of illegal migrants who threaten our society. By amending the relevant sections of the Convention, we can balance human rights with the imperative need to protect our citizens.

More details

I am deeply concerned and heartbroken to see the news filled with stories of British citizens who have been victims at the hands of illegal migrants. The threat is real, and people are living in fear.
The current legislation prioritises the rights of those who enter our country illegally over the safety and well-being of our citizens. This has resulted in tragedies impacting the lives of our mothers, fathers, children, and friends—tragedies that could have been avoided.
