David Cameron Addresses Tory MPs on European Court of Human Rights

David Cameron has issued a strong warning to Euro judges, stating that he will not be deterred in his efforts to get Rwanda flights going. Speaking to Tory MPs, the former Prime Minister emphasized the importance of pushing forward with Rishi Sunak's plan and taking on Strasbourg if necessary.

Reassurance Amidst Controversy

Amidst concerns from fellow Tories, David Cameron sought to reassure his colleagues that he is committed to the cause. He even dismissed claims from his close friend George Osborne, asserting that Osborne does not fully understand his views on the matter.

Experience with the European Court of Human Rights

During his address to the Conservative 1922 committee, Lord Cameron highlighted his personal experience with the European Court of Human Rights. He referenced his battle to strip prisoners of voting rights and his defiance of ECHR rules during his time as Prime Minister.

Pushing for Stronger Measures

While Rishi Sunak's plan has already faced opposition, with Supreme Court judges deeming it in violation of international treaties and domestic law, many Tory MPs, including former Home Secretary Suella Braverman, are pushing for even stricter measures. They want to disapply all ECHR or Human Rights Act laws in migration policy.

Positive Reception from Backbenchers

David Cameron's address to Tory MPs was met with enthusiasm and praise. Backbenchers described his performance as "vintage" and "classic," demonstrating their support for his stance on the European Court of Human Rights.
