Well, Jaysay doesn't have to agree with me but sadly he has to live with it unless he wants to leave the country to somewhere that doesn't protect human rights and I don't really see why anyone would want to?
The majority of Britons leaving this country to go live elsewhere choose Australia, New Zealand, France or Spain. These countries all protect human rights in similar ways to the UK. People don't seem to want to live in places that reflect this distaste for the Human Rights Act that's for sure.
On a similar note, apparently there are more British people living abroad than any other nationality. Mind you, my source is a newspaper on this... though its not often that newspapers want to point out things that make us think that actually we bang on about absolute nonsense most of the time when it comes to immigration and jobs.
I get to read every day how people benefit from EU legislation and inevitably people fall beneath the net sometimes with legislation but that is because it is just so difficult to predict what issues will crop up and you can't cover everything in one document, its just not possible which is WHY we have such an amazing common law system that other countries try to replicate in their own countries. We should be proud of our legal system but instead people want to complain about the flaws. Well they're a damn sight smaller than a lot of the flaws of other countries, and believe me I'd know!
