They want to leave the ECHR because it will allow them to abolish the State Pension, the Minimum Wage, paid holiday and sick leave.
It would make them tens of billions a year.
But of course they say immigration, because they can't tell you the real reason.

Sat in a cafe listening to hard-core @chelseafcn.bsky.social football fans debate the stats of the women's and men's teams. Whoever thinks men can't be interested in women's football are clearly wrong!

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

Buckingham Palace worth £2,000,000,000
Pays only £1,824 Council Tax.
I bet you pay more than that, and it shows you how Council Tax is rigged so the richest actually pay less than everyone else.

The criticisms against @teamlabouruk.bsky.social are the criticisms we dreamed of having about the last government. Starmer is spending too much time working with other international leaders. Starmer is focused on longer term targets.

Climate and conflict are more interlinked than they’ve ever been before.
People are fleeing conflict only to find themselves on the frontlines of the climate crisis.
Meanwhile that very climate crisis can fuel tensions and force more to flee. #COP29
