what impact does the european convention on human rights have on england and wales?

Answer 1

The effect of integrating it entiretly into the legal system of England and Wales is to bid goodbye to national sovereignty. The UK is now in many ways a country ruled by judges and where any law conflicts with the Human Rights legislation, the latter prevails. This link (with the contents of which I do not necessarily agree) contains a useful table of comparison showing how the doctrine of human rights (which in theory sounds wonderful) clashes with national sovereignty and, for that matter, the rights of the individual citizen. http://web.inter.nl.net/users/Paul.Treanor/human-rights.html

Answer 2

It gives all legal decisions made in these areas one further point of appeal even above that of the House of Lords. the HRA has had quite an impact on hte Common Law in England and Wales

Answer 3

it prevents us from having dominion over our own laws, it is a
crafty organisation which does a percentage of good, and a prcebtage of evil like protecting criminals rights and getting them financial rewards, instead of jail, as a result creates fear in the comunity, telling the community that the innocent come a poor second.its obvious to me that england and wales can form their own human rights and make it a lot better.
