We need a high profile campaign explaining what the ECHR is all about and how it is us who will suffer if we leave. Most people are ignorant about it. People would be up in arms if we said weekends etc were being scrapped

Pure nonsense: Badenoch unveils insane plan to end £100,000 childcare 'cliff edge' ahead of Tory conference.
The point of child benefits especially childcare fees isn't a freebie. It's about lifting people away from poverty. £100k a year isn't poverty.

For me Brexit is about a lot more than free trade with Europe. The victory of fascism in 2016 which has poisoned the well of UK politics must be reversed. Brexit damaged the security and prosperity of the whole of Europe. It was sponsored by our enemies, both political and military.

Too bad that there isn't a SoS at the Home Office more interested in communicating the true picture on asylum seeker arrivals, rather than letting the RW media get in a lather about 781 refugees arriving yesterday. Barely a fucking word from the media on how much lower the figures are vs Tory years.
