Leave European Convention on Human Rights, reestablish the primacy of UK courts.
Leave the European Convention on Human Rights to reestablish the primacy of UK courts and legislation. This is an anachronism left over from Brexit that needs to be expunged.
Failure to leave the ECHR will reduce the impact and intent of the Nationality & Borders Bill, allowing illegal immigrants to remain in the UK long after their application for leave to remain has been rejected.
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:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about the UK's membership of the European Convention on Human Rights, but existing UK legislation, and other international agreements, mean that this would not entirely separate UK decision-making from decisions by the European Court of Human Rights. The action you have requested would therefore not achieve what you have set out in your petition.
We also cannot publish petitions that contain false or unproven statements. This includes unsubstantiated speculation about the effect of the UK's membership of the European Convention on Human Rights on specific domestic policies.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
