As an MEP I deal with constituency issues on a daily basis; issues where EU law affects their daily lives either directly or indirectly.
I am here today to tell you that there is one deeply flawed law that above all others, damages British life and put our lives in daily peril.
It is the Human Rights Act. It is a rotten law that Britain loathes
Human Rights are worth protecting.
I am vocal in the protection of Human Rights.
The Human Rights Act was created in Britain by the Labour Party who despite warnings were reckless as to the consequences.
However, this EU-backed, and now soon to be enshrined law is now routinely and regularly abused by those who cause havoc in civil society: terrorists, criminals and illegal immigrants.
More often than not judges whom apply Human Rights Law decide that those rights trump those of the majority decent, honest hard-working British people.
The case of Abu Qatada is attracting media attention. Human Rights Law, by allowing Qatada to dodge deportation to Jordan, has inflamed the British public.
Simply, the Court of Human Rights leaves Britain unable to defend its interests. In a recent survey, 75% of British people think that the Act should be scrapped all together.
It is the Lisbon Treaty that allows the EU to sign up to the ECHR which further imprisons the British public who never got a chance to say no by referenda.
Let me tell you the British people are shouting loud
No the European Human Rights Law Release us from the shackles
