A top UN official has provoked outrage after likening David Camerons threat to scrap human rights laws to Nazi Germany.
The Prime Minister has warned the Government could withdraw the UK from the convention in order to deport foreign criminals.
It is the most radical option as part of plans to scrap the Human Rights Act, which enshrines the convention in UK law, with a British Bill of Rights enforced by the UKs Supreme Court rather than by judges in Strasbourg.
But Professor François Crépeau, the UN special rapporteur on the human rights of migrants, said: We have to remember the 1930s and how the rights of the Jews were restricted in Germany and then the rights of the whole German people.
Prof. Crépeau said weakening human rights laws was a dangerous slippery slope. He said: I mean, countries that go down the path of reducing the rights of one category of people usually dont stop there.

But then again, the UN guy is a “special rapporteur”. Wow. Who am I to criticize a special rapporteur?
This from a guy whose nation was rescued by the sacrifice of British soldiers?
And uh professor Crap-Oh....no one in France agrees with you anymore ecept Hollande and the Muslims.
Everyone else wants their country back.
It’s worse, because Crépeau is actually Canadian and a British subject and is trashing Britain in this manner.
The UN was commie from day one, with its charter being a copy of Stalin’s USSR constitution. It should never have come to be.
Well, he’s still French-Canadian. They never bought into being British subjects anyway!
Guess it’s just his way of getting back.
hUh? a FRenchman working for the uN calling the UK Nazis? Hate crime or what?
Thanks Olog-hai. Looks like the hacks and demagogues at The Mail just can't miss an opportunity to badmouth the Tories, the UK, pretty much anything that doesn't undermine civilization.

“Well, hes still French-Canadian.”
French-Canadian=Worthless A$$hole! Thanks to pricks like Crappo, we in America have to suffer with cars that have “cluttered” English/ Metric dashboards and warning placards because the Cannucks have demanded it be so. North America would today be much the better if we had repatriated both the French and the Blacks to their places of “origin” back when we still could.
Just saying.
The UN was an abomination to begin with, with its charter resembling the USSR’s constitution by design, and thus formulated to give the USSR outsized power in the world.
