No, but criminals should lose rights depending on the severity of their crime/crimes.

 @9FRFHMSanswered…7mos7MO

Yes, but replace it with a reformed version codified and agree by referendum and parliament vote and blocked from being removed or amended by parliament without another referendum

 @8JYNF9Panswered…3yrs3Y

People who have committed crimes inflicted on children and vulnerable people, such as sex crimes, homicide, etc, should loose these rights.

 @9BJG36Canswered…12mos12MO

There should be something called ,,Labour Camp”. In this camp you’re going to make for example manufacturing, building roads and being a farmer. They can I to arrest if the are pro Russian and pro communist.

 @9CDVCPXcommented…10mos10MO

A slippery slope. Many would have the audacity to call socialist policies Communist.

The ironic reality is, many UK voters' irrational fear of Socialism is allowing the government to slowly lurch towards Communism.

 @9LH758Xanswered…1wk1W

No, but it should be strictly interpreted by the courts, any extension of Rights must go through Parliament

 @9L6NRTNLabouranswered…3wks3W

No however there is a need for some amendments in domestic law which will then help to comply with the ECHR as well as modern day trends

 @9L4GBX9answered…4wks4W

Yes, whereas the act itself is fine - unfortunately the case law that has now embedded itself around the act allows for too much misuse and excuse and it now does not follow its own spirit

 @9KZM56Sanswered…4wks4W

No, although the Human Rights Act only tied our hands to the EU courts etc, but us doing a stupid thing like that will lead to other countries in the EU that are puritan to do the same. Hungary being an example!!

 @9KVR46Banswered…1mo1MO

Only if the government cements our rights such as freedom of speech, freedom of expression and the right to self defence in law and that it clearly states that those rights superceded all other laws in perpetuity.

 @9KS4Q6Danswered…1mo1MO

should be a more in depth human rights with focusing on on humans business military wars and criminals

 @9KLK3YZanswered…1mo1MO

No, but criminals of major sentences should have some of their rights reduced/ limited for a set time period both during and after sentence

 @9KKLVVXanswered…1mo1MO

Copy and paste much of it into British law i.e. British Convention on Human Rights (BCHR) but have it so we don't have to accept free movement of asylum seekers like the ECHR.

 @9KHHLGPanswered…2mos2MO

Human rights are a concept that aims to prevent abuse against people who have committed crimes. Human rights should not be used as a way to let a criminal use the system and take advantage from it.

 @9K7MC8Banswered…2mos2MO

The ok should have more control over human rights in our country. I also think it should be completely overhauled. Criminals should be treated like criminals.

 @9K65KGC from Kansas answered…2mos2MO

Yes, the UK should create a written constitution for a federal republic than includes a declaration of rights

 @9JXDLXCanswered…2mos2MO

no, human rights apply to ALL humans regardless of criminal status and any attempt by the government to weaken these rights to pass legislation should worry the general public

 @9J49RVNanswered…3mos3MO

A codified constitution, like the United States has, would benefit us as a society, though it depends on what would go into that constitution.

 @9J49LXQanswered…3mos3MO

No, but given Brexit has occurred we should be reviewing any central policy implemented through the EU for suitability in a UK-centric purview

 @9HWFSLGanswered…3mos3MO

No, but illegal migrants should not get any rights in the UK and terrorists and pedophiles and child killers should have rights stripped.

 @9HVCWVHRejoin EUanswered…4mos4MO

Everybody should have basic human rights, abd be able to use drugs for personal use. Free medical care for the poor and focus on the homeless and mental health of UK citizens.

 @9HTKK9Vanswered…4mos4MO

Yes, but there are some regulations that are ridiculous. This needs a discussion as to which regulations are over the top n take ownership of people for their stupid decisions.

 @9HTJYRSConservativeanswered…4mos4MO

Yes, and replace it with a constitution-style article which provides greater control to UK institutions.

 @9HRC7Q7answered…4mos4MO

NO abolishing internationally recognized rules will encourage regimes that violate these rules that democratic safe nations like Britain do not care about human rights abuses and violations of international law and therefore will encourage dictators to abuse these rights

 @8VD5H96answered…3yrs3Y

No, criminals should lose many rights however after 5 years out of their sentence and release they should start to regain their rights as it is unfair that many have their entire lives ruined due to their past actions but if they are jailed again in the span of 5-10 years they should not gain these rights back

 @8TYXDYFanswered…3yrs3Y

I think the human rights act should protect people who have observed and respected the rules of the human rights act. Bill of rights is also a good idea but it needs to be a bill of rights everyone in the UK agrees on. There needs to be a more defined position on what needs to be a rule and what happens once you take those human rights away from others like children and parents. For the victims of murderers of pedofiles need a straight life scentance. If you have the potential to do it once you do again. Give them good food let them live well in prison so they can reflect for a long time. Edu…  Read more

 @8TW79YYanswered…3yrs3Y

no but those who have committed crimes should be questioned and tested if the can become better people and if not they should have some rights removed

 @8TVJGSVanswered…3yrs3Y

Do not abolish - amend to incorporate ideals that we have had under the European Human Rights Act

 @8TSMSVLanswered…3yrs3Y

Yes. Copy paste the Constitution of the United States. The ideal human rights.

 @8TL56S5Labouranswered…3yrs3Y

Only if it is replaced with something Akin to the American Bill of Rights.

 @8TDC9SKanswered…3yrs3Y

The human rights act currently used (the EU version) should have the section which regards "morals" and replace it with what it was initially meant to be, absolute freedom of speech as long as they are not genuine threats. The right to freedom of speech by definition means you can say whatever.

 @8TC6JMFanswered…3yrs3Y

Yes, replace it with a bill of rights that gives the UK more legislative control
Make it so that convicted criminals lose many of these rights for a period that is at least six years longer than their sentence not only as part of their punishment but also as a way of trying to nudge thm back to the straight & narrow .

 @8SST2LYanswered…3yrs3Y

UK should have ther eown act which is pretty much the same as EU human rights and fix whatever problems we would have

 @8SQPLBSanswered…3yrs3Y

Some of the human rights policies don’t fit our needs so it needs reform.
