Tories and Reform want to quit the European Convention on Human Rights.
Since 1980, the ECHR court has heard 29 cases of immigrant deportation. UK won 16. No defeats in the last 5 yrs.
Quitting ECHR won't fix illegal immigration, will destroy our freedoms and rights.

Today's Monday Mood is Smiley 💜
We think this picture of a beautiful smiling mum is the perfect way to start the day.
If you're feeling smiley today, why not share your smile with those around you, and pass on the joy? You may brighten someone's day.

Before vaccination (breastfeeding was more common than now) 95% of kids got smallpox (up to30% mortality), 90% measles (up to 20% mortality), 70% percussion, 60% mumps, 20% rubella, 10% polio, 10% dipheria (with 30-50% mortality). Deaths would be lower today. Sequelae might not.
