    The thing about the Convention is that it constrains governments, and it constrains the way that governments can treat minorities and people it doesn’t like… If we were out of the ECHR, you wouldn’t have that constraint

    Tories are salivating at the thought

    Do it.

    We all know this is what the “take back control” idiots wanted. To torch the rule of law.

      To torch the rule of law

      More to limit the huge list of people they need to bribe. To change laws.

      Shutting cross nation treaties down. Makes controlling local governments affordable and practical. Hence why UKIP reform trump and all these right wing arsehole get so much billionaires support. It’s how they gain fudal level control.

      The more worrying thing. Is how easy voters are falling for bullshit anti immigration claims.
