It's great when someone with some sway actually gets it.
Luckily this is not an EU institution, this is an international treaty above the EU. For example, Azerbaijan is a signatory.
Point is, you can't easily get it through EU legislation to overturn this, as it would need to cross the ECHR, which it won't do.
Can’t wait to see the brexiteers’ faces when they realise Britain is still a signatory.
Oh they're still trying to get out of the ECHR so they can deport people to Rwanda.
And doesn't really care, because there's no punishment for, say, being a member of something with "human rights" in the name and Azerbaijan simultaneously.
They even occasionally pay fines for torturing someone to death or things like that. Those fines are not that big.
Stop this fucking doomerism and defeatism
or get treated as an annoying little shit.
Grow the fuck up
Or just be miserable, I guess.
That's the attitude 💪💪
