May be, definitely not

Theresa May's sabre rattling about the Human Rights Act needs to be put in its place. First, the HRA will not be repealed because there is no chance parliament will vote for it. This is a step too far even for the Lib Dems. Second the European Convntion is not binding on parliament, which remains soeverign. So, all we need to do if we don't like a clause or implication of the Convention is to pass an exemption through parliament or simply legislate in opposition to it. The UK has often, in thr past, ignored the Convention, there is nothing to stop us doing so again.
