Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says
“We need to leave the ECHR so we can deport people that come illegally & take back control of our borders & that’s what the public wants”
Share if you disagree with his populist boll**** the UK should join Russia & Belarus outside the ECHR

It’s fairly obvious that’s what most of the country wants, same as before.
I’d personally prefer us to rejoin EU, and ideally go further with eurofederalism
1. Close all the legal routes for refugees who want to flee to the UK to escape war and oppression.
2. Call those refugees who nevertheless make the perilous journey "illegal", due to them not having taken the (non-existent) legal route to get here.
Amazingly her questioner was a Tory.

You are per definition not illegal.
If your asylum claim is rejected and you remain…then illegal might be the correct term.

What needs to be done? Explain what the ECHR is and does. How it's not just for immigrants but protecting British people's freedoms together with our own laws.
#Frottage has decided on simplifying this complex convention down to one issue.
It's only 34 pp.

Processing of asylum seekers has begun again & anyone without a legal claim to stay are going back. I think they’re averaging 10k a month now.
No ECHR exit required.
I couldn't care less what that creature says.
Let's not turn a nobody into somebody.
Farage Ltd is irrelevant, and so are his company communications.
We, the many, need to take back control of the narrative; not follow someone else's.
It didn’t & never could. Instead it fecked our economy & boat crossings increased with no ‘returns’.
Now he wants us to break international treaties & have no rights at all.
No thanks, Nige, we’re not falling for your 🐂💩 again.
I for one encourage them to do that as we want fuck all to do with the shit show in Britain
Stop sharing this shitler and his bleatings
It was our own courts that ruled the deportation of asylum claimants without due process illegal.
Nothing whatsoever to do with the ECHR.
We already can and do deport illegals.
Asylum seekers are not illegal. Only when they fail processing claims does that happen.
The Tories preferred to stockpile people in hotels and refused to process them, feigning to be horrified.
Don't fall for lies.
What’s that? How much a leader can rabble raise?
Here’s such a clear and familiar - sic - def of a demagogue though farage isn’t considered one … YET 🤣🤣

I therefore do not trust for a second anybody who wants to withdraw us - their motivation cannot be good.
You don't think it has??
The only thing Brexit changed is where the immigrants come from.
As a country, we need immigrants, regardless of whatever lies farage is spouting today.
Much of the world is allowed in on a 6 month per visit visa waiver.
No one checks if they leave.
Do YOU have any choice over how many immigrants arrive? Do I?
If the government can’t reduce immigration because doing so would decimate our economy, do they really have any choice to reduce immigration?
Brexit means that Westminster has much more control over foreigners who come here to live and work.
They scrapped the mutual, reciprocal FOM scheme that was capped,
…and replaced it with an uncapped points based scheme that’s only limited by the number of people there are in the world.
…yes.
…and comes with conditions too.
Depends how you choose to think of it.
With EU/ECHR, it's the lack of democratic control for the English especially.
Hard to say whose face is the most nauseating and ridiculous. Not trying to body shame the shameless.
What are the Russians paying you son? Or what do they have on you?
Part 1 went well, didnt it ? 🙄
Did farage explain the consequences or was it just another empty plan to rile the masses into voting for him?
Maybe when his last frolic is as successful as he said it would be we can entertain him.
It's as valid now as then
No person or party who wants to remove the mechanism for protecting human rights, including MY human rights, will EVER get my vote
And NO, I would not accept ANY "replacement" they might dream up
‼#ECHR protects us ALL‼
He doesn’t get to have power over a woman’s body . …. Any more than the abuser in his company .
Followed. You're funny ♥️
He's talking 'westminster speak' a mechanism of MP's/CS's etc.
He uses terms like 'people' knowing we assume he is talking about us, the population of the UK.
Wrong.
'They' use words you'll misinterpret. They really mean their people, backers, paymasters.
1950-1999, Leftists having a love in with Russia .
2008-2024 its the far right having a love in with the Russians ....Nigels 5th Column Grifting for Russian rubles .
It's piss and wind and British "political journalists " never do work any real work beyond the sound bite or "gotcha ".
Lazy and ill informed.

Just wait, 2 years or so afterwards when it's all gone to shit he'll be claiming we "left it under the wrong terms".
