Kwicky, please expand a little on the problems caused in Britain by the ECHR. Please expand your thoughts on how the ECHR affects immigration into Britain.
Have you actually read what the ECHR is and what it says?

Immigration to the UK predated the ECHR.
Claiming Asylum by some predated the ECHR.
Reluctance to send people back because they may well be victimized, tortured or killed by the regime they were fleeing from predates the ECHR.
I would agree with you however, that if they break our laws, particularly if it involves violent crime etc, then they should automatically lose the right to asylum.

Yes. Many of the things that are happening today under the guise of the Human Rights Act are an affront to common sense and those victims who have been injured by criminals. Personally I think anybody who has committed a serious crime should lose most of their rights. We are now learning so far that the criminals get all the rights and the victims get none.
"Did the prisoners who were awarded compensation for being refused drugs whilst in prison, not win their claim because a denial of drugs breached their human rights?"
They were awarded an out of court compensation by the government as the government knew that they would (probably) lose the case in the courts
The prisoners were denied methadone - a drug that is a heroine substitute.

What about the report yesterday that one of the dome armed robbers is sueing the Police for a black eye!
The intentions of the HRA where laudible, unfortunately it has been hijacked by money grubbing lawyers and criminals and is being used to voilate the human rights of the masses. What we had before was common sense, there was no need for legislation designed for tin pot African dictatorships, there are very few breaches of human rights in UK and indeed the western world. This was just a sop to the trendy liberals in my opinion. Unfortunately it has back fired into what we see today.

For not deporting this illegal immigrant a woman PC was gunned down in cold blood.
