I think my favourite one is that, in 2024, the ECHR ruled against the UK just once - in a "free speech" case brought by the publisher of the Daily Mail

My favourite ECHR stat is how many times it has been cited as being instrumental in ruling against the deportation of unsuccessful Asylum Seeker applications.
It's 13 since 1980.
Perhaps we need to shout that loudly at Farage/Badenoch et al who demand we leave so as to be able to deport people 🤨

I asdume Richard Tice speaks Arabic, as he spends quite a bit of time in Dubai
Otherwise, being a member of a party with such a policy would be blatantly racist.

We’re now down to £35pcm. So they have been literally embezzling her for c.£400pa.
I wanted to cancel the whole contract, but she likes the record function. Tried to explain £35 a month to record Antiques Roadshow is utter madness, but one has to pick one’s battles.

Profiteering is the word.

I did this for my mum’s elderly cousin whose husband (account holder) has dementia. Had to threaten legal action to get Sky to review £110 a month contract which included internet which they don’t have! Now on £34 a month, but overpaid for years. Infuriating profiteering from vulnerable customers.
