Conservative Manifesto, Brexit and Human Rights

By

 

Regarding Brexit and human rights, the UK’s Conservative Party has promised the following in its 2017 General Election Manifesto:

  • “We want to work together in the fight against crime and terrorism, collaborate in science and innovation – and secure a smooth, orderly Brexit.”
  • “We will not bring the European Union’s Charter of Fundamental Rights into UK law. We will not repeal or replace the Human Rights Act while the process of Brexit is underway but we will consider our human rights legal framework when the process of leaving the EU concludes. We will remain signatories to the European Convention on Human Rights for the duration of the next parliament.”

The complete Conservative Party Manifesto is available to read at:
