Let’s also not forget leaving the ECHR could result in UK’s trade deal with the EU being terminated because the convention is written into the 2020 Trade & Co-operation Agreement & would also breach the Good Friday Agreement which requires the Convention be directly enforceable in Northern Ireland - ThreadSky

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

We are currently in the EHCR and we are still able to deport people. Farage has done enough damage to this country and our trade. He should be deported. Maybe Putin will take him. They have so much in common.

So which of these rights would we like to lose? Suspicious of anyone who wants to overturn them as they were instituted after WW2 to protect us from a Dictatorship

What is the ultimate goal here, stopping boats can’t be the only reason?

Can we not throw him in the sea please? He's such a cretin!

poohbearcorner.bsky.social•79 days ago

Let's not also forget that the imbecile PM #BorisJohnson, didn't notice, or did not care, that the moronic #Brexit debacle, would put a #border in the middle of #Britain / Northern #Ireland. THAT is how stupid #Brexit was & is now.

petergray.bsky.social•79 days ago

That would suit Farage. Terminating all connection and trade with Europe would his dream. He doesn’t give a sh*t about our economy, or the effects on his supporters or their living standards, he just wants to create and ride a nationalist populist wave.

jkeithgibson.bsky.social•78 days ago

It’s just the same scam as Brexit (Freedom of Movement) - leaving the ECHR is sold as denying other peoples rights while failing to mention that it also significantly diminishes the rights of UK citizens

fernmonkey.bsky.social•79 days ago

Farage should be clinging to the ECHR for dear life. It's the only reason we don't hang traitors.

threepot900.bsky.social•79 days ago

Does it stop us drowning traitors in strawberry milkshakes though? That could be our loophole!

allybally1.bsky.social•79 days ago

We would definitely be hit by sanctions from the EU & the US for breaking the Good Friday agreement, and our economy would literally collapse

kogodajb.bsky.social•77 days ago

Does this guy have any other policies to make the UK better.

It seems according to Farage that if we get rid of all immigration the UK would be a paradise.

All the potholes would disappear, mental health problems would evaporate, old people's homes would be too warm in winter.

Farage is a conman.

“Filler Noise” Farage takes up media space. Space that could be used for reporting on Russian invasion and war crimes. Maybe he should be known as a White Russian give the amount of milk thrown at him.

I think by now we should know that anything Farage supports is bad for this country. He is the polar opposite of a patriot.

fernmonkey.bsky.social•79 days ago

I don't want the UK to leave the ECHR, but if it does happen, maybe we will see Farage hanged for treason.

sihay.bsky.social•79 days ago

Spouts some shit that bloke!!

davyw60.bsky.social•79 days ago

Utterly disagree with Nigel Farage. He does not speak for me.

cloudynetwork.bsky.social•79 days ago

The same old BS from Farage. So first it was EU membership "preventing" things. Now it's the ECHR. He never stops.

ieaticecream.bsky.social•79 days ago

Imagine trying to tie immigration to the ECHR. Brits might just be stupid enough to listen frogface-ski one more time, but I very much doubt it. Even the dumbest gammon has to admit to themselves that illegal immigration has shot through the roof since brexit

legrandcourtil.bsky.social•79 days ago

Not sure why right wing politicians are so fixated on ECHR never heard anybody in the real world express an opinion on it

threepot900.bsky.social•79 days ago

purely because it has European in the title, and thats all they need for their dog whistle politics of destruction.

ieaticecream.bsky.social•79 days ago

Paid by putin. Putin wants to crush Europe. Suddenly they hate ECHR, simple.

thelittlesaint.bsky.social•79 days ago

Peter, you know that we are not leaving the ECHR, that would mean leaving the council of Europe and as founding signatories, that is never going to happen. It’s very important to keep highlighting this and calling out these idiots, someone might just be stupid enough to believe their 💩 .

stephenp1878.bsky.social•79 days ago

Farage must just be on the wind up. The man is an idiot but makes for great television

pumpoipercy.bsky.social•79 days ago

The old adage, repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth.

peterjamieson.bsky.social•79 days ago

I am willing to bet that Fromage has neither read nor understood the 2020 Trade & Co-operation Agreement or The Good Friday Agreement. First TU rule of negotiation - read and understand the agreements and their consequentials.

philt602.bsky.social•79 days ago

Fartage knows that none of his supporters know, nor care about the impact of leaving the ECHR. They just hear "Europe" & the dog whistle tells them that this is bad. Fartage himself knows it would be bad for the UK, but his handlers want to break-up European unity.

threepot900.bsky.social•79 days ago

You would have thought that his local 'spoons would have a copy of these documents on every table, to keep their customers informed and up to date on the process of Brexit wouldn't you?
