Repeal of the Human Rights Act and return to the laws which were in force prior to the Human Rights Act coming in to force. These laws served this country well unlike the nasty Human Rights
Why the contribution is important
It is required to get our country back to sensibility and common sense. For example, we are unable to deport a foreign murderer because it would be against his human rights to be deprived of a family. What about the human rights of his victim's widow who was deprived of her "human right" to family life by this murderer. To add insult to injury, the British tax payer will no doubt support him on benefits.

The human rights act is supposed to be there to give basic human rights to all. Unfortunately iy appears that criminals seem to be the ones getting the most from his act.
Rather than just getting rid of what can be a useful act in some cases, why do we not just give it a suitable level of authority.
Whenever there is a British law in place it should take precedence over the human rights act. Only when no other British law applies should these human rights apply.
In this way, our elected government can make laws knowing that they will not be declared invalid and criminals will find that their victims get their rights first.
