UK to withdraw from European arrest warrant scheme

Image: Kirsty Wigglesworth Image: Kirsty Wigglesworth THE UK IS to leave the European Arrest Warrant scheme which allows for the fast transfer of suspects across the EU.

The guidelines set the deadline for progress against a backdrop of deep divisions between the two sides over issues including fish, state subsidies and standards. Some European countries, including Germany, have laws which forbid the extradition of their nationals to non-EU countries, creating a potential problem.

The EU also warned that any co-operation must be based on the UK remaining signed up to the European Convention on Human Rights which was written into domestic law in the Human Rights Act, legislation which the Tories have promised to “update”.

What could possibly go wrong?

Lol. These idiots.
