That BREXIT must include leaving the European Court of Human Rights
An intrinsic part of the Brexit debate was the sovereignty of Great Britain, the ability to decide on our own matters. The ECHR must no longer be part of our legal process deciding who we may deport, this is a job for our sovereign legal system up to the House of Lords.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The European Court of Human Rights has nothing to do with the European Union. It is the court of a separate international organisation called the Council of Europe, of which the UK was a founding member in 1951. You can find out more about it here: www.coe.int/en/web/about-us/who-we-are
If you want the Government to exit the Council of Europe, you could start a new petition about that.
