Reform immigration plan

[Notch7]

I am not so sure. You might be surprised how little inherent protection there is under British law. As far as I know, if we leave the ECHR and the other international treaties mentioned, such as the one banning torture, then there would be very little protection left. Parliament has the right to make any laws it wants. If Reform wanted to pass a law making torture legal in the UK and had the numbers in Parliament, I don't what would stop it being legal.

The most important reason for staying in the ECHR is that it protects citizens against the state.

If Farage wants to deport 600,000 people, how many of those will be British citizens or partners and family of British citizens.

There are plenty of stories of people who voted for Trump who have now had their husband or wife deported.

That's why we would have the all new British bill of rights instead of the human rights bill to avoid such nonsense.

A new bill of rights created by Reform party would not protect British citizens.

Farage is a populist, if he was in power he would do remove parliamentary and supreme court scrutiny giving executive ultimate power.

It's what populists do: see Poland, Hungary, USA

 

[Notch7]

Only military action to bodily remove people will work,

That's called an authoritarian dictatorship.

If that's what you like, please move to Russia

So they can cancel the need to dissolve parliament and have elections?

I don't see why not. Parliament could definitely extend the current term.

This reads like the plot of a really bad sci fi novel. Completely divorced from reality. Maybe the friendly foreign power could be aliens .

He is obviously a regular member with an alter ego having a bit of fun with us. But who? I like a good mystery.

Trump is certainly trying to do that.

Fartage is a Trump

Possibly. People also sometimes mention old posters from a bit before my time like Joe 90. It could be someone I have no experience with.

I did say his name three times recently

NHS has released a new advice leaflet, it’s for Reform supporters

before you get so upset, why not think back to how it worked before HRA?

I don't see why not. Parliament could definitely extend the current term.

How would they go about abolishing their own dissolution?

 

[MNW67]

How would they go about abolishing their own dissolution?

Well that might be the limit. As they are the supreme power, they probably cannot abolish themselves.

What is your point, though.
