9 countries, so not just Britain, want it changed to tackle migration. It has to be updated as it's not fit for purpose in the 21st century. At last Europe seems to be waking up to the problem.

From the article itself:

Critics of the ECHR say that the advantage of leaving for the UK would be to take back control over human rights law.

But Berset said: "The opposite is true. What I see is more the risk to be a bit isolated. It would mean to be not participating to all the discussion on migration, to take an influence."

While he said he would not comment on internal politics in the UK, Berset appealed for the debate over the ECHR had to return to "facts".

Leaving the ECHR would be a disaster and wouldn't achieve the supposed aims of doing so. If reform is needed of some of the legislation, it should be done sensibly in a way that protects everyone's basic rights.
