We’ve trashed the place over immigration. Brexit turned it into an ugly obsession that made us mad. Scrapping freedom of movement didn’t work. Losing our own rights just trapped us and our politicians and media won’t admit it.
So, on we go, playing the same hateful record… and failing.

“The ECHR isn’t Brussels meddling. It’s the foundation that protects you from your own government.” 👏👏👏
Leaving the ECHR won’t “Take Back Control” – it will hand your rights to politicians
The myths are seductive, the reality is very different – without the ECHR your freedoms rest on whichever Home Secretary wakes up grumpy
