Nigel Farage is wrong about the European Convention on Human Rights.
He thinks we should leave the ECHR to reduce migration.
But not only do just a tiny number of immigration cases rely on human rights, leaving the ECHR would be an unmitigated disaster ⬇️

Nigel Farage is wrong about the European Convention on Human Rights | Good Law Project
The Reform leader is unveiling legislation to leave the ECHR. His arguments are wrong – and that move would be a disaster.

This is exactly what I thought. I believe journalists have to highlight this so politicians in general don’t get away with it. It’s becoming too easy to just say anything without questioning
Further to this, all the characteristics mentioned by Mahmood already have to be met to get ILR (salary, English, life in UK test, clean criminal record, no welfare benefits) other than this weird Duke of Edinburgh style volunteering thing that they cannot possibly implement.
I do think we sometimes forget:
1. We need high-skilled migrants to keep the NHS working, and to grow the economy
2. High-skilled migrants have a *lot* of choices over where to go
And
3. We’ve been getting less attractive as a destination for years anyway (wages here famously suck)
