People cheering the Govt’s talk about leaving the ECHR is like little pigs demanding the wolf legislate for dwellings to be made exclusively of straw.
@Henrysbridge@toot.walesMy first question to those who cheer such stupidity:
Which rights and freedoms would you like to be unprotected?
My second question:
