Nigel Farage has vowed to scrap the UK’s human rights law in a bid to tackle the small boats crisis.

The Reform UK leader pledged to leave the European Convention on Human Rights, scrap the Human Rights Act, and disapply other international agreements he described as “roadblocks” to deporting people who arrive in the UK illegally.
