The laws don't need to be changed. As you've said above they're working for the European citizens and member states.
Brexit was done to Europe. The UK chose it collectively. You need to stop asking us to carry the load of your choice.

There's comfort in knowing some things never change - like Dorries knowing less than zero about topics on which she has StRoNg ViEwZ.
None of Linehan or "Liz" Connolly's charges are even tangentially related to the Online Safety Act. Hadn't even come into force in Connolly's case. Embarrassing. ~AA

This administration will come after children of gay parents after they overturn same-sex marriage.
Those kids will inevitably end up in the foster system.
Trump has already significantly eroded LGBTQ+ employment rights, housing rights, and access to healthcare.

The biggest tactical mistake that Labour made was whipping to vote for Brexit.
Now they are critically unable to attack Farage, tie him to Brexit, Putin, and Trump.
So the UK is a soft-pro-join country but doesn't associate Farage with Faragestein's Monster, aka Brexit.
