Britain could quit the European Convention on Human Rights so it can legally “chuck out” people threatening the country and its way of life, UK PM David Cameron said. Critics doubted Cameron’s honesty, saying such move would mean quitting the EU.
In the first public statement of its kind, the British prime minister told BBC1 that he was ready to cut ties with the Strasbourg court, to prevent it from interfering with British justice.
“I’m less interested in which convention we are signed up to. As Prime Minister, I want to know I can keep our country safe,” Cameron said.
