The European Convention on Human Rights was a wonder of its time, but that time was 1950. It was celebrated by Churchill as a bulwark against the encroachment of communism in Europe. Communism may now be dead, but in 1998 (when Labour needed to deliver on an election promise), the European Convention was simply incorporated into our law without amendment.

What is the translation of the second amendment of the British bill of rights?

The Bill of Rights of 1689, passed by the British Parliament in that year, does NOT have amendments (and, frankly, needs no translation or interpretation, as it is quite straightforward). Perhaps the questioner was instead thinking of the 2nd Amendment to the United States Constitution (part of the first 10 amendments commonly referred to as the Bill of Rights) ???
