Support for staying in the ECHR has been rising (probably a Farage effect of solidifying the majority who oppose him, maybe Trump osmosis effect). Media and political opinion on the right believes there is a strong public desire to quit. Badenoch has now committed the Conservatives to quitting.

Imagine you're in a weird romcom where Paul Hollywood is your rival. Do you go "let's have a bread baking competition" or do you emphasise your own relative strengths?
Because that in short has been the central problem with the traditional two's approach to anti-immigration voters and Reform UK.

Given Streeting embraced anti trans hate both in his words and actions, I find his faux acknowledgement that trans people now feel less safe both risible and vile.
He is no friend of the trans community, and I wouldn't trust him to hold the line against racism either.

Health Secretary Wes Streeting says the government must recognise and respond to a "increasingly visible tide of racism" . He acknowledges trans people feel less safe today than a decade ago.

Good news. The Scottish Government has now adopted the position I’ve been pushing for all along.

Looking across the papers today, anti-trans rights commentators and politicians also seem to be the ones opposing making abortion legal. It shouldn’t be a shock to anyone - they’re against bodily autonomy. For everyone.

This decision from the ECHR is lockstep in line with the decision in the CJEU from Hungary which I covered here.
The outcomes are the same because the logic of fundemental rights around privacy and Data Protection are the same.
