Description

Government documents reveal that around 170 foreign nationals, deemed dangerous and involved in terrorism or extremism, are living in the UK due to human rights laws preventing their deportation. Many claim a right to family life, protected under Article Eight of the European Convention on Human Rights. This has sparked calls for an overhaul of human rights laws and tighter immigration controls, with Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood promising reforms. The debate intensifies as critics argue for leaving the European Convention on Human Rights to deport these individuals, highlighting the complex challenges faced by the UK government in balancing national security with human rights obligations.
