Following recent criticism from the likes of Tony B "liar" should the Human Rights Act be scrapped?

Content of the Human Rights Act:The HRA makes certain rights and freedoms guaranteed by the European Convention on Human Rights enforceable in United Kingdom courts. The ECHR has not been incorporated in its entirety, e.g. Article 13, the right to an effective judicial remedy in a national court, is expressly excluded from the HRA. The following table outlines the main provisions of the ECHR that have been incorporated into the HRA with some indication of the issues that are likely to arise under them.
