Here’s the reason Dominic Raab focuses on deportations in attack on Human Rights Act
Dominic Raab: he’s planning to strip YOU of YOUR RIGHTS, so let’s remember that he ignores the rules whenever he feels like it. Here we can see him licking his finger to turn a page, in conflict with the then-enforced rule to avoid touching our faces, and certainly not to touch things that have been handled by other people and then lick our fingers. We have let imbeciles like this impose their tyranny on us.
Remember Dominic Raab’s speech to the Tory conference, in which he promised to attack the Human Rights Act, claiming that he would remove the ability for an illegal immigrant convicted of domestic violence to avoid deportation by claiming the right to family life?
You will, of course, understand that he was using a solitary incident – that is hypothetical; it is doubtful that any court has ever allowed it to happen – to justify removing human rights from all of us.
No?
You didn’t get that from what he was saying?
If not, then here’s an expert to explain:
2. But what Raab is seeking to do is take that right away from everyone – however sustainable their claim may be – on the basis of a few that might push their luck.

4. The UK Borders Act 2007 effectively says anyone convicted of an offence who is sentenced to 12mths imprisonment or more will be automatically deported unless to do so would be a breach of their human rights or the Refugee Convention

6. It is rare that the Tribunals find that it is "unduly harsh" – usually if they do it is because there are children involved who will suffer grim consequences. Raab and Patel know this.

8. In fact, human rights legislation protects us all. The HRA was introduced to "bring home" the European Convention on Human Rights – a Convention heavily supported by Churchill, to prevent states committing the kinds of horrors we saw in Germany in WW2

10. By constantly using "foreign bogie man" examples, the Tories blow a massive racist dogwhistle to convince people what they plan will only affect "them" and never you or your loved ones. Be very careful what you wish for.

Of course, there’s nothing to be done about this at the moment; the Tories have a massive Parliamentary majority and the plan for this has existed for at least seven years. Worse still, Labour under Keir Starmer will never oppose the plan; he supports the removal of your rights.
The best thing you can do right now is to educate your Tory-voting friends (you’re bound to know someone, right? Otherwise, how did they win the election?) into understanding that they voted to deprive themselves of vital rights.
And those of you who are socialists need to work to rid the Labour Party of the entryists who have perverted it into the opposite of what it should be.
You still have three years before the next election, so what’s it to be? Get busy – or give up?
Have YOU donated to my crowdfunding appeal, raising funds to fight false libel claims by TV celebrities who should know better? These court cases cost a lot of money so every penny will help ensure that wealth doesn’t beat justice.
