I suggest you look up the meaning of the word supersede you’ve put the cart before the horse again.

Why do you do this stupid routine continually. Put the horse before the cart. They want us leave the ECHR to repeal the HRA. That doesn’t take us back to the state of Britain in 1997, it takes us back to the state of Britain in 1951. In 1997 we had the safety net of the ECHR without the the...

You do understand that human rights aren’t binary, it’s not a case of you either have human rights or you don’t. It is possible to have a high standard of human rights in some areas and poor human rights in other areas? To say in a very simplistic way we had human rights before the ECHR...

The 2% shows exactly why privatisation has failed. The consumer directly has to cover private companies investment in energy generation plus it’s the only reason any investment is made in the cheapest form of energy in the first place. Energy providers are only interested in selling you the...

I haven’t contradicted myself at all. The only thing that changed in 1998 was where you took your case. I refer back to my original comment.

I think if you understood what a stupid question that is you wouldn’t have asked it in the first place. Of course we had human rights, they were protected by the ECHR. 1998 was the year that those rights were passed into UK law meaning that you didn’t have to go to Strasbourg to fight for your...

Leaving the ECHR is their next smokescreen, their next bogeyman to stay relevant and keep the masses scared while they take the piss out of the plebs. We left the EU to take back control of our borders. Now that fairytale turned out to be a fairytale we have to leave the ECHR, when that...

I dare not say it (but I’m going to anyway) I just have a feeling it’s going to our season. Momentum seems to be carrying forward from the arrival of Frank last season. I also can’t help but feel that buying the ground has taken some pressure off promotion as it felt like promotion and the...

Woke up this morning and the first thing I did was check the news reels to make sure yesterday wasn’t a dream. Grinning like a Cheshire Cat again.

Some day. The best news the club has had in decades followed by an emphatic and stylish win rarely seen as a sky blue. It just feels like the stars are aligning. Early doors but it’s starting to feel like it did the season we won league one. Like momentum is unstoppable.

Genuinely feeling very emotional right now. Never thought it would happen without premiership money, coupled with remembering all the shit we’ve been through to get to this point. It’s quite a day. Hat’s off to Doug, well done. An owner who has genuinely brought the club forward.

The sentence was within sentencing guidelines for her crime. It wasn’t even the most severe sentence that could have been passed down. Maybe her legal team didn’t do such a bad job after all. Maybe the real discussion is about sentencing guidelines? But playing devils advocate’s for a moment if...

Thing is. She did it. Just for the purpose of clarity she also did it in writing and just so there was no misunderstanding anywhere she then posted it on a public forum. What else could she do but plead guilty? If she was “let down” by her legal team, which she wasn’t, then surely their failure...

He’s a Woody Johnson fan not a Palace fan. Crystal Palace is just somewhere to meet to discuss how they’ll carve up the NHS to the benefit of MAGA America should Nigel Farage ever become PM.

We also have obligations as UN members and even as NATO members. The WTO is having discussions on how its members support asylum seekers. Which begs the question. How many organisations do we have to leave before the Right has no one else to blame for a migrant crisis that they don’t really...

2018 is actually quite significant when you look at the asylum claiming process. Prior to 2018 the government had a target of an initial decision on a claim of 6 months, that target was quickly dropped in 2018 when it became clear that they couldn’t meet it, not that they were in most cases...

As opposed to no chance whatsoever of being returned to another EU country. A deterrent to no deterrent. As already pointed out. While irregular crossings dropped into the EU they rose into the UK from the the EU. Take 2024 alone. Crossings into Europe fell almost 40% while into the UK from the...

As final destination in Europe 8% would have been 8% for us. There would be no offsetting. The pretext you’re presenting doesn’t reflect on the reality of what the DR would mean to the UK. Clearly Brexit also took the pressure off France to stop the boats. We did that ourselves.

It was the single biggest deterrent we had. To put it into context using the 8% figure you highlight that would have returned about 3000 of the arrivals in 2024 alone. Compare that to the big idea of the government that brought us Brexit as a replacement. The Rwanda scheme. The scheme many...
