1) Withdraw from Europe so that the UK is no longer bound by European laws and can no longer be controlled in any way by Europe (ie stop people taking the UK for a ride at the European court of human rights etc). This one comes first because it paves the way for all the other changes - people would not then be able to go crying to European court to override the rest of the stuff on this list. Human rights are important, but so are the interests of the majority. It's a balance. So lets make up our own laws about that, which we control.

Tellin' it like it is!
The European Court Of Human Rights is the only court that can keep this insane govt. in check. Do away with the ECHR and you are effectively living in a police state.
Of course you wont realise how valuable the ECHR is until you fall foul of an unfair law passed by this Labour govt.
Retrospective taxation is a good example. See the BN66 thread:
