Should the UK abolish the Human Rights Act?
Yes, replace it with a bill of rights that gives the UK more legislative control
By incorporating internationally recognized human rights into domestic law, it provides a framework for protecting individuals from government overreach. A bill of rights solely controlled by the UK might be susceptible to changes influenced by political shifts, potentially undermining the fundamental rights and freedoms that the Human Rights Act seeks to uphold. The Act, being rooted in a broader international context, helps ensure a more enduring commitment to universal human rights standards.
