> At the Tory party conference in 2014, Cameron announced that he was ready to remove the UK from the European Convention on Human Rights. In April 2015 that threat was included in the Conservative Party election manifesto, reflecting Tory plans to replace the Human Rights Act 1998 with a British Bill of Rights.
> So what would be the impact of such a change on workers’ rights? To begin with it would enable British Judges to ignore rulings of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) and would undermine the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) – the international treaty first drafted in the post-war years to protect fundamental rights and freedoms.
> A flood of watchdogs and organisations have come out against the move, which despite government claims, is clearly intended to remove rather than strengthen civil liberties and will further deregulate and remove health and safety and employment protections from the statute book.
