The Tory manifesto has proposed prioritizing UK border security over membership in the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The manifesto suggests a potential exit from the ECHR, contingent on the court's interference in UK policies, such as the Rwanda asylum plan. This position mirrors previous stances and does not provide a definitive pledge to leave the ECHR. The manifesto also reiterates a commitment to reducing migration, echoing promises made in the 2019 manifesto. Over 125,000 illegal migrants have arrived since 2018.
Here is the European Convention on Human Rights reference in the Tory manifesto. It is essentially a repeat of their existing position. A loose conditional. IF the court interferes in Rwanda THEN something might follow. So no pledge to leave ECHR. https://t.co/0KpEB38Pwk https://t.co/8dhXTcK1xk
Tory manifesto pledges to bring down migration So did the 2019 manifesto https://t.co/TmWbn1XFQg
Tory manifesto will 'open the door' to leaving the ECHR but makes no cast iron guarantee. Too little, much too late. Over 125,000 illegal migrants have arrived since 2018. Over 125,000 young men from hostile cultures now roaming around our communities. https://t.co/q73LfN2AjM
