People should vote for who they really feel is the best at the time, not the name of the party, because in my opinion gone are the days that the parties really stand for what they once did.

That's fair enough mate, but for me I think that human rights and civil liberties needs a massive overhaul! They are of course vitally important but I don't think they are protecting who they should be at this moment in time and I really don't trust the Lib Dems with that job under the current leadership.

civil liberties are not working because Tony Blair's labour government scrapped them in the pursuit of war in Iraq and terrorists
and now the Conservatives want to scrap the human rights bill
Liberal Democrats are the only party who have said that our rights are unbreakable and should never be changed
Johnny do you agree that terriorists shouldn't be shipped out of the country then..?

Jimbo27 wrote:Tony Blair didn't water down Human rights, he brought that act in. Over the last ten years the human rights act has played a huge part in ripping apart some of this countries moral fabric. If legislated properly, and used in the correct manner, human rights are a powerful tool but right now they are not fit for purpose and are literally allowing people to get away with murder,as a former lawyer I've some unbelievable abuses of the hr act.
Plus while HR are important at this moment in time it is certainly not in the top of the list for what I will be voting for in the next election. First and foremost has to be the economy and Clegg is utterly incompetent in this area!
A good friend of mine was a director of Phones 4 U at 23 and ge is now chief executive of A major retail company at the age of 29!! He came from a broken home and his father died an alcoholic! He's worked his ass off to get to where he is with no favors off anyone. He's also a top bloke and a semi pro footballer. He's been asked to go into politics by the labour party. I hope he takes the opportunity as I think it's people like him who could really ignite this country. Career politicians are no longer fit for purpose IMO, people should have actually achieved something in the real world before going into politics!

ok ill ask a question instead of an answer (id make a good politician lol)
why did the government feel the need to scrap our civil liberties to fight terrorism?
to answer your question no i believe terrorists should be thrown out of our country as long as certain criteria are met:
1 it does not risk their human rights
2 they are originally foreign nationals
if sending them to their country of origin will breach their human rights they can sit in one of our prisons for the rest of their natural lives.
Before you mention illegal immigrants they shouldnt be in this country anyway and if they had valid reasons to be in this country as a refugee they would be here legally

Why should the British taxpayer fund their stay in jail if they are foreign nationals? The human rights act should not be there to protect one person who has the intention of murdering thousands! They should be tried in British courts and if found guilty after a FAIR trial should be sent packing!

Thats were we would disagree as having being a long term visitor to another country (Australia) I signed up to conditions that had I convicted any criminal act then my visa would be cancelled and I would be returned to my country of origin. Its that kind of agreement which should be put into place here as visitors should earn the protection of the country they are a visitor of and not abuse it.

but they are being protected
if you broke the law in australia you kiss goodbye to some of your civil liberties
now if Australia want to deport you as is their right
under the human rights bill if you can prove that going back to your country of origin would put your safety and you rights as a human being are at risk, Australia are honour bound to look after you but you would probably spend a long time in prison.
I feel that had I convicted any crime during my time over there I knew the rules from the start, I broke them so I shouldn't be intilled to any protection from Australia whether or not my country of origin is safe or not. The host country should say 'you had your chance, you blew it, you'll on your own!!!'

no i hope they dont
my argument is what would stop them if they chose toif they throw out the international bill of human rights to create their own bill on human rights what stops them from re-legislating if they dont like it anymore
a British bill of human rights effectively leaves the British Population with no rights at all
The British people would stop them thats why we live in a democracy if people don't like something then we can vote them out during the next election. If creating some crazy comments like this to defend the indefensible clearly shows that liberialism is dead in todays world. Some would say that liberialism is like communisum in that its good in theory but completely useless in practise.

but you wouldnt be able toif the government did something the population didnt like they will take away your right to vote, your right to protest
because they will re-legislate to suit them
hitler did it thats why the european bill of human rights was written
you are entering very dangerous territory and you really dont realise it
and your trying to lead this country down the same road hitler led germany down
Hitler got elected democratically then got rid of democracy because he persuaded the population to give up their rights and this is exactly what your asking the british public to do
Human Rights and Civil Liberties are there to protect you from the state if the state has direct control over your rights they can do what they want with them so in theory you have no rights
Yes you would, if any law was such a bad law then one party would see the unpopulaity of it and would act upon. Its then up to the people to vote them in. Thats democracy for you.
The only dangerous territory we are entering is continuing to bow down to Human Rights Laws which allow known terrorists to stay in this country!!!

At the present time they conclude that a foreign terrorist or criminals have a 'right' to a 'family life' which is deemed more important than the Human Right of everyone else in society to be protected from these nutters.
As MG said in Austrailia you would be deported no matter what once you have committed a criminal offence. Hear you get a soft sentence and a life on disability benefits even after you have kicked 'the family' out.
The interpretation has to be changed so that the Human Rights of everyone else is considered also and not just that of the criminal or terrorist.

the right to a family life has one meaning you have the right to get married, the right to have children
it doesnt say anything about having a wholesome family life
otherwise every woman who wanted a divorce wouldnt have a leg to stand when the husband gives his right to a family life
why this country lets them get away with it i dont know.
Youre human rights are your protected rights as a human being regardless of your worldly actions
giving away your human rights is the single most dangerous thing you can do
