The ECHR was set up after WWII to ensure that fascism never again arose in Europe. Why do the right want to curb/limit/leave/abolish the ECHR? Because it does what it was intended to do, that's why...
How many times do we need to point this out?
By appeasing the far right, you do not weaken it. You strengthen it.
While weakening your own position.
There's a vast amount of academic research showing this.
But Labour will not listen.

"Rachael Reeves’s budget means ... we’ll continue to have less disposable income than we did 20 years ago."
Why is it suddenly Labour's fault? Didn't you notice the 18.5 years of less disposable income BEFORE she delivered her budget? You know: the shit economy your mates delivered? Pricks.

I'm not kidding: I reported on this FOUR YEARS AGO in "The Decade In Tory"
It also contained the entire COVID Inquiry (cost: £200m). And every single Brexit mistake (£140bn per year).
And it's £2.50 on Amazon.

Tory governments spent £325m on free schools that failed or disappeared
More than £10bn was committed to building new schools between 2014-15 and 2023-24, compared with £6.8bn for rebuilding existing schools

🚨Everyone should watch this important film from Liberty
The Governments action this week is “a concerning disregard for the rule of law & goes against recent statements by the Gov’t that they would NOT abuse the use of secondary legislation”
Liberty will be back in court later this week
