Nigel Farage just tried to bring a Bill to pull Britain out of the European Convention on Human Rights.
I voted against it - and the whole thing was rejected.
We can’t let Farage strip away the rights that help ordinary people stand up to the rich and powerful.

Unfortunately due to a clash our monthly meet up will not take place, but if you are near @thehillarystep1 do pop in anyway. Hopefully normal service next month (though most of us are going to @salfordbeerfest the week before, still a few tickets left )
