The Loss of Our Own Courts' Supremacy

By: Adapted from The Ultimate Plan B by David Campbell Bannerman MEP on 12-Dec-2011

British justice is now overruled by foreign courts such as the EU’s integrationist European Court of Justice (ECJ) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in Strasburg, so the UK’s Supreme Court is not supreme in the UK for all UK laws. We are also bound by the EU’s Interpol and Eurojust Policing and justice systems.

Britain is subject to the European Arrest Warrant (EAW), which is an abuse of traditional Habeas Corpus by allowing British citizens to be imprisoned years abroad without trial, and the European Investigative Order (EIO) which turns our police into agents of foreign courts. Britain also has to be a signatory to the European Convention of Human Rights (ECHR), which, while being separate from the EU, the Lisbon Treaty and EU membership rules require Britain to sign up to.

For example this has allowed the disgraceful enforcement of votes for prisoners and the widespread misuse of human rights claims made possible under the ECHR and UK Human Rights Act.

EU citizens committing crimes in the UK maybe deported more easily. Scottish law will also be restored along English law.
