Human Rights Act

Basically, the U.K is doomed with the Conservatives trying to abolish the human rights act... That means we cannot do a lot of things

Right to life
Freedom from torture and inhuman or degrading treatment
Right to liberty and security
Freedom from slavery and forced labour
Right to a fair trial
No punishment without law
Respect for your private and family life, home and correspondence
Freedom of thought, belief and religion
Freedom of expression
Freedom of assembly and association
Right to marry and start a family
Protection from discrimination in respect of these rights and freedoms
Right to peaceful enjoyment of your property
Right to education
Right to participate in free elections

Basically these are the things. I can't believe the idiots who voted for Conservatives. I mean, okay I understand Cameron cutting benefits and things but he has got to understand that poor is subjective. You cannot take away poor as you can't take away rich. Not everyone can earn and not everyone can get a job. Poor are going to struggle.

That's absolutely right but I still don't understand why people voted for them. Honestly, I'm seriously worried now.

Except, here is where we have been failed by our voting system. Only 37% voted Tory, but as we use 'first past the post', that was enough to hand over our whole country to them.

This...great guy..... was visiting my school a few months ago and I stood right behind him. I resisted the urge to ....give him a hug.......

If you wanna know why i'm saying such nice stuff is because i'm avoiding the new NSA style surveillance Mr Cameron would like to put up.


EDIT:

The Tories are gonna make their own British Bill of Rights Act so its gonna be the same apart from stuff like "Respect for your private and family life, home and correspondence" because woo censorship and 1984

I would like to mention that in the past Gove was known for wanting to bring back hanging, so I kinda hope he doesn't still support that.

I advocate for nation wide civil disobediance if the British government repeals the Human Rights Act

There still is one way to be publicly hung in Britain. High treason, so don't go killing the queen kiddos or the crows will have you for dinner.

I thought for high treason you had to be of a noble family or like aristocracy
