UK�S OWN BILL OF RIGHTS WRECKED BY THE LIB DEMS
Chris Grayling said plans �put on ice�

HOPES of scrapping the Human Rights Act and replacing it with a British Bill of Rights were dashed yesterday when Justice Secretary Chris Grayling admitted the Tories did not have the strength to push it through parliament.

Mr Grayling told MPs that despite his desire to dismantle the Act, the Government was putting plans for change on ice because of opposition from its Lib Dem coalition partners.

The Tory minister said: �I feel very strongly we need to make changes to the human rights frameworks. Unfortunately it is my view there is not a majority in the Commons for such changes and it will therefore fall to a future majority Conservative government to deliver them.�

His comments mark the end for Prime Minister David Cameron�s vision of a British charter to replace the Human Rights Act before the next election.

They will also infuriate his party colleagues desperate to see an end to the meddling in British affairs by foreign courts.

Public outcry at the power of the European Court of Human Rights to overrule British judgments has been growing and reached fever pitch when the unelected Strasbourg judges ordered the UK to give serving prisoners voting rights and blocked the deportation of foreign criminals such as Abu Qatada.

The Tories� election manifesto committed the party to scrapping the Human Rights Act and replacing it with a British Bill of Rights to stop rampant abuse by criminals and terrorists.

But because of the coalition with the Lib Dems, the commitment was watered down to setting up a commission to examine the best way forward.

Insiders said the commission was undermined from the very beginning by Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg�s demands that it only look at how to build on the Human Rights Act.

But last December, after 19 months of deliberation and at a cost of �700,000, the commission on a Bill of Rights was shown to be an expensive failure.

It returned its findings but could not even reach a unanimous conclusion on the central question of whether there should be a new Bill of Rights.

Most of the advisers suggested Britain should introduce its own Bill of Rights to make people feel that human rights are not dictated by Europe.

Yet two legal experts thought the current European system good enough and warned a separate British system could possibly be even dangerous, with unintended consequences.

Tory MP Dominic Raab, an ardent campaigner for a British bill, said he was not surprised at Mr Grayling�s admission.

He said: �It is just facing the facts that we are not the majority party. We don�t have the majority we would have hoped to be able to deliver on this. Changing the Human Rights Act is clearly not something the Liberal Democrats are ever going to support.�

Our country is being run by banksters and gays with no option for the people to have a say on anything at all, when the Bulgarians and Romanians arrive we wont even have a country.
