The move comes as Britain’s broken immigration system is plunged into its biggest crisis in a generation.

Violent riots have broken out at removal centres while spiralling numbers are arriving in small boats - nearly 40,000 this year alone.

Embattled Home Secretary Suella Braverman has admitted illegal immigration is “out of control”.

Deputy PM and Justice Secretary Dominic Raab said the Bill of Rights will “reinject a healthy dose of common sense to the system and end abuse of our laws”.

He said: “It will put an end to the mission creep of continuously expanding human rights laws, and re-establish proper democratic oversight from Parliament.

“The Bill of Rights is a vital reform that will strengthen our freedoms, help protect the public, and demarcate a clearer separation of powers between the courts and Parliament.”

Once passed, the Bill will tear up the Human Rights Act and ensure the UK Supreme Court can overrule the European Court of Human Rights

It will end barmy rules stopping foreign rapists and killers being deported because of their “right to a family life”.

It will also stop terrorists arguing they cannot be held in seperate prison centres because it harms their “right to socialise”.

Mr Raab added: “The Bill of Rights will put a stop to the elastic interpretations which are shattering public confidence in human rights, like dangerous criminals claiming a right to family life to try to avoid deportation and the terrorists claiming rights to socialise so they can spread hateful ideologies in prisons.

“It will make crystal clear that the UK Supreme Court is not subordinate to the European Court of Human Rights.”

Plans for a British Bill of Rights were originally drawn up by Mr Raab when Boris Johnson was PM.

They were controversially ripped up by Liz Truss during her brief stint in No10.

But it will now be brought back to Parliament within weeks.

The aim is for it to become law before the next election - expected in 2024.
