we wish, to relinquish our membership of the European Court of Human
Rights.

control of immigration and asylum policies, and border control. We must be not
be bound by any freedom of movement obligation, and we must be free to set and
meet our own annual migration targets.

which some £9 billion of UK money is vested.

before the end of
2019.
