Any source on this because I'm highly sceptical. Anecdotal but everyone I know is either pissed that government is even considering scrapping the Human Rights Act or confident that removing it wouldn't pass a vote.

Also, if you want to be dismayed, stop by "Have your say" on the BBC site whenever they talk about immigration or the EU or Human Rights.
