Our membership of the ECHR is a condition of being part of the EU. Without the latter the former becomes optional and we can apply or overrule their findings as necessary. Ultimately the British courts should have final ruling in Britain not the ECHR.

"Ultimately the British courts should have final ruling in Britain not the ECHR."

I disagree. ECHR should have the authority to rule against human rights violations in member countries, this extra level of protection is absolutely necessary.
