Leave the European Convention on Human Rights NOW!

The Issue

An Iraqi asylum seeker has been allowed to remain in the UK after his mother refused to hand over an ID document that would enable him to return to Iraq. He used the European Convention on Human Rights. We need to leave the European Convention on Human Rights.

 

We need to be able to remove people who have no right to be here. Being a member of the European Convention on Human Rights prevents this. All too often, people use the ECHR to obstruct being removed from our country. We should decide who can stay. Leave the European Convention on Human Rights NOW
