Britain has problem with ­foreign criminals escaping deportation due to Euro laws, admits Home Secretary

Published on March 30, 2025 at 10:19 PM

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.
