BRITAIN has a problem with foreign criminals escaping deportation due to Euro laws, the Home Secretary finally admitted yesterday.
After months of pressure, Yvette Cooper suggested ministers will review how Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights — the right to family life — is applied in UK law.
Ms Cooper told the BBC: “There have been some cases that do raise some real significant concerns, and that is also about the way in which the immigration asylum system operates.”
She said Labour is reviewing things “to make sure that the immigration asylum system works effectively in the way that Parliament meant it to”.
MPs across the political spectrum have called for Britain to quit the ECHR — or at least urgently reform it.
It has come amid a number of recent cases that have seen judges allowing foreign criminals to remain in the UK because they have a “right to a family life”.
This year an Albanian criminal was allowed to stay in Britain partly because his ten-year-old son does not like foreign chicken nuggets.
And a paedophile who attacked a teenage girl was allowed to stay because he is an alcoholic.
The Tories have vowed to abandon the ECHR if it continues to act against the national interest.
And Reform UK chief Nigel Farage has called for a referendum on exiting the agreement.
