Those wanting to leave the ECHR say our own govt and domestic law would protect us.

2 things:
1) the ECHR was set up to protect citizens from human rights abuses by THEIR OWN govts
2) our govt has already removed our FoM rights and limited our rights to strike, protest and vote.

Our Home Secretary incited ‘extreme violence’ on our streets.
That’s it. She must go. There are no justifications for this. No possible reasons to keep this menace in post, defiling her office and putting people in danger. Anyone defending her is a disgrace.
Sunak, over to you.

Oh Sunak,
What a day you’ve had. So desperate to be the establishment figurehead on this day of remembrance. But instead, being the handmaiden for fascist thugs marauding through London, ruining Armistice Day with their ugly disrespect.
On your watch.
Invited by you.
For shame.

So Sunak has decided not to sack Braverman, pretending it was just a scuffle about what she put in The Times and not an issue of her profoundly sinister abuse of power or the fact that he’s running scared of her Tory attack dogs.
What an utterly unprincipled and pathetic man he is.

Never underestimate the damage Braverman does. Not just to the vulnerable people she targets. But to all of us. She’s a malignancy in our society and we all suffer the side effects. Whether our reaction is anger, despair, fear or loathing, it’s all harm. A relentless assault on our wellbeing.

Inquiry, officials recall that Johnson believed that the country was being “pathetic” about Covid and should just have “a cold shower” and get over it. In one exchange he is recorded as sympathising with the idea that the virus was simply “nature’s way of dealing with old people”.

An aerial bombing of a dense refugee camp, killing 50 and injuring 150, to take out a single Hamas commander is not exactly 'proportionality in attack,' as required by international law.

So I think we're learning that Boris Johnson would only engage with prime ministerial paperwork if it was disguised as WhatsApps.
