Please remember this next time you hear Nigel Farage and Reform say we must leave the ECHR to control our borders
🚨 “Can I tell you how many times in the last 45 years the European Court of Human Rights has ruled against the UK when it comes to deporting people from this country - only 13 times - in 45 years”
Hugely important point made by @vicderbyshire.bsky.social 👏

The UK’s laziest Councillor?
Reform UK’s Councillor Shaun Knowles in Northumberland has been paid £9340.67 since becoming a councillor.
An FOI has shown he’s sent 2, TWO emails since May!
He’s attended just 1 meeting (in Sept) since elected.
Reform UK wasting tax payer money.

Bit demoralising to hear talk at work about numbers of 'contacts' being a meaningful (it's not) measure of clinical activity. Why does it always seem to end up like this?
