Now there's always a risk with this present government. Once or twice Cameron has falsely threatened to scrap the 'Human Rights Act' and although he can't do that within the EU, he can certainly try to do that if we are out of the EU.
Whichever way we vote, we need to remain vigilant about this. I'm voting out but that doesn't mean I'm not concerned about possible changes to what is presently mandatory and compulsory jurisdiction of the court.

Exactly, why anyone would want to let this government off the leash without the EU there to step in is beyond me. This government has already tried to cut vital benefits for the disabled and the working class and they'd only get worse if left to their own devices.
