Nice to see Michael Heseltine’s hair back in the Commons.
First the likes of Farage said we needed to leave the EU. Now they’re coming for the ECHR.
Paul Kohler MP: "It feels like Brexit déjà vu with the same hollow promises of taking back control, the same disregard for facts, the same blindness to consequence."

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Read that back.
When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

“Farage claimed last year to have “bought a house” in his constituency but the property is actually owned in the name of his partner, meaning he legally avoided higher-rate stamp duty on the purchase of an additional home – given he already owns other properties”

"So when Farage, Cummings and Jenrick complain that Brexit was never properly delivered, they are railing against the inevitable consequences of the chaos they unleashed. The borders policy they condemn was theirs. The economic stagnation they lament was their inheritance to the nation."
🔴 Brexiteers hate the world they created
They claim that Britain is broken, while still clutching the hammer.

I wouldn’t have thought many Labour MPs came into politics to strip the rights of torture survivors to be reunited with the spouses & children.
They need to take a long hard look in the mirror & ask whether Starmer, Cooper & Reeves are really the leadership their careers should be remembered with.

Where has this ludicrous ECHR "debate" even come from.
I've never once met an ordinary member of the public who's said to me, "Do you know what? We REALLY need to leave the ECHR."
It's just a new right wing talking point because every other shit idea they've foisted on us has run out of steam.

Long COVID is real. It’s common. It’s disabling millions.
And no one talks about it—because if we looked too closely, we’d have to change
So instead, we decided:
Let people get sick.
Let kids struggle.
Let the vulnerable disappear.
Let the numbers stop counting.
