I am opposed to the repeal of any Human Rights Bill. The British people have been used and abused for centuries and any bill which protects our Human Rights, be it from the House of Commons or the European Parliament in Brussels, is most welcome.
If the Human Rights Bill were to be repealed, the UK-gov would have a hay-day, banging people up for endless time without trial and all manner of other spiteful things. UK-gov fear and hate the people. Never ever trust them. They are in power to control every aspect of our lives, including, how we dress, what we eat and how much we drink.

Each year Radio 4 do a 'fun' Christmas/New Year listener's poll. Last year it was for a new law and this year it's asking which law or bill listener's would like to repeal.
Before Christmas anybody could nominate and each day celebrities appeared on the show supporting one of the nominations. The nominations then went to a short list and now it's voting time.

nicely... extremely relies upon on what going to be in this invoice of rights. it ought to easily be a re-naming of the HRA which some token adjustments to the outcomes of appeals to the ECHR. the concerns strengthen with the help of Cameron are actual ones - yet there is little that an act of parliament can do to manage them, because maximum of those attacks were made with the help of Parliament. Legally, an act of parliament now ought to not ward off a destiny parliament from repealing that act and doing even if it wanted. An act forbidding longer detention classes or identity card *would basically be a political device*. i'd have an interest to work out what, precisely the Conservatives recommend to do about it...

The road to hell is paved with good intentions. The human rights bill is one of them. Badly drafted, woolly worded, its easy for lawyers to distort to give us some of the travasties we have seen. Better to junk it a spend some time putting together a replacement that works as we would want it to and perhaps to give back some of the rights we have lost - such not to be locked up for a month without trial or remain silent without having to prove we are innocent.

Really? Why?! And it's the Human Rights Act, not bill, if it were a bill it wouldn't need repealing because it wouln't be law.

We have had rights established by law & commonsense for centuries. In fact, Dark Age Anglo Saxons probably had more rights than we do today.
The recent introduction of the HR Act has led to society twisting itself in knots trying to appease everybody.
For example, prisoners successfully sueing the Govt because they were denied their Heroin fixes.
Illegal Immigrants winning compensation because there was a delay in deporting them.
The HR Act has contributed to the destruction of our previous safe, stable & small-c conservative society.
And I for one want that back. So does the majority of the population in England - and it will happen.

Those crazy neocons are at it again. In their eyes people shouldn't have rights at all.
