In your opinion, would it be a positive or negative for the UK if we left the ECHR and why?
The ECHR doesn't, by itself, prevent HR abuses. it provides the means to appeal when governments don't respect your rights.Modern day slavery still goes on
Domestic abuse still goes on
British citizens killed and raped by foreign born criminals.
Exposure to foreign criminals that can't be deported.
Isn't leaving more about being effective in all the above.
Isn't it about protecting good and not protecting the bad?
After all no one would disagree for what they stand for and are meant to be about.....

What does the European Court of Human Rights do? The Court applies the European Convention on Human Rights. Its task is to ensure that States respect the rights and guarantees set out in the Convention. It does this by examining complaints (known as “applications”) lodged by individuals or, sometimes, by States.

I assume you are referring to the fake news instances of the cat ownership preventing deportation of a criminal?Then who prevents these foreign criminals being deported in some instances once they have served their term?

Article 8 of the European Convention on the right to privacy and family life deals with that subject in great detail.
I suggest you read it and understand it before making spurious claims about it.
If you can't be bothered to read it, I can't be bothered to answer your questions, based on mythology, about it.I'm not going to waste my time reading it. Are you saying our government are free to remove foreign nationals who.mean harm to our country and its people or is this fake news?
