Nigel Farage

Nigel Farage

Reform UK — Clacton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 29 October 2025

Debate

European Convention on Human Rights (Withdrawal)

Contribution

I ask the Liberal Democrats and others in this place: what is wrong with you? Do you not believe that this country is good enough to make its own laws? Do you not believe in the country that since Magna Carta has developed the principle of common law—which, with its faults, has been perhaps the best ever developed by civilisation? Do you not believe we are good enough to make these rules? Should we stick with outdated conventions preyed on by human rights lawyers in this country? This Bill would restore democratic trust and faith in this once great nation.
