ILLEGAL migrants and foreign criminals are exploiting our human rights laws.

I share the public’s fury at seeing our laws used against us.

It is an outrage that an arsonist sentenced to five years in jail can’t be deported as his sibling lives in the country.

For 14 years, the Conservatives allowed serious criminals to remain on British soil.

Now they say we should leave the European Convention on Human Rights.

But the truth is leaving the Convention would not help us — we’d spend the next decade renegotiating every agreement with a foreign country to send their criminals back.

Instead, I will take action to end the abuse of our legal system.

We’ll write domestic laws so the safety of British citizens comes first.

We will bear down on vexatious human rights claims that ground flights.

Bogus cases raised by claimants will be heard and dismissed faster.

And all this will allow us to scale up the deportation of foreign criminals and removal of illegal migrants, making our country safer and restoring order at our border.

Britain will always protect the vulnerable.

But we will not allow foreign criminals and illegal migrants to exploit our laws.
