Conservatives to push for Human Rights Act to not apply to immigration decisions

The party has tabled an amendment to the Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill.



The Conservative party is seeking to amend the Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill to prevent the Human Rights Act from being used to appeal deportation or other immigration decisions. They argue that the Act hinders the UK's ability to manage immigration due to expansive interpretations of the European Convention on Human Rights. The aim is to shift immigration powers from the courts to Parliament and elected ministers.
