The new government is a conservative majority, meaning there is little opposition to what they can impose. David Cameron and his party have made the decision to abolish the Human Rights Act (1998)

Abolishing the act means losing these rights:

• Right to life
• Freedom from torture and inhuman or degrading treatment
• Right to liberty and security
• Freedom from slavery and forced labour
• Right to a fair trial
• No punishment without law
• Respect for your private and family life, home and correspondence
• Freedom of thought, belief and religion
• Freedom of expression
• Freedom of assembly and association
• Right to marry and start a family
• Protection from discrimination in respect of these rights and freedoms
• Right to peaceful enjoyment of your property
• Right to education
• Right to participate in free elections

Here is a link all about the act

This is only the first oppressive move the conservatives hope to make, and we can only hope this is the worst it will get.
