Strongly agree

Yes, replace it with a bill of rights that gives the UK more legislative control

The UUP has expressed support for a British Bill of Rights, which would replace the Human Rights Act and give the UK more legislative control. In their 2015 General Election Manifesto, the UUP stated that they would support the introduction of a British Bill of Rights to ensure that the rights of victims are better protected and to address concerns about the balance between individual rights and national security.

No, but criminals should lose many of these rights
