💨 Abstract

Ex-Chancellor Jeremy Hunt suggests "ripping up and rewriting" European human rights laws to address the immigration crisis. He criticizes the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) as outdated, particularly due to its interference in immigration cases. Hunt urges the UK to lead a push for reform, highlighting instances where migrants use spurious appeals to avoid deportation. While Sir Keir Starmer has vowed to tackle such appeals, overarching solutions remain elusive.
