What an asshole.
Hans, are we the baddies?
Yes, keep ploughing ahead with the unpopular idea. That will certainly improve your tanking re-election odds.
Rejoining ECHR should be an election promise if this goes ahead
- Fortunately, it they'll be out in their ear before this happens. I imagine they'll be saying all sorts of nonsense in the run-up to the election to keep the worst people happy. At this point, I think it's safe to ignore them.
Why are they so obsessed with this clearly unpopular policy? Just give up and move on. Come up with ethical alternatives? Or even a stricter border policy like other western countries have...
But of course, if they did that, then they wouldn't be able to use immigration and foreigners as a scare tactic on their elderly demographic anymore.
- Because it is just a stupid policy that's a waste of money. If your goal is to stop immigration there are much cheaper and more efficient ways of doing it.
- Also, would they have, anything to talk about? ..... 'cricket noises'....
I predict that the UK will not, in fact, leave the ECHR.
Rishi is just saying this shit to stir up the Tory faithful.
- We thought the same about Brexit...
  When we vote, we need to make sure the message is loud, clear and painful.
  
  Give Liz Truss the spanking of her stupid submissive fantasies.
  Downvotes?! There's Liz Truss supporters here?
2023 net migration was 672,000. Small boats accounted for 29,437, or 4%. But yes, totally worth the effort, the cost, and the scorched earth. Gotta ~~stop the pigeon~~ stop those boats!
Why are they continuing to announce policies, that are god awful. All they're doing is making the people who are on the fence even less likely to vote for them.
Meanwhile the racists who they're trying to appeal to have already gone to another party.
Who on Earth is all of this theater for exactly?
Hmmm this clearly hasn't been long in the planning
E: I hope it's another fuck up (in their terms), but you never know ..
I think the Good Friday Agreement might prove a roadblock in that regard.
