    Sunak is already laying the groundwork for a withdrawal, within hours of the court ruling he has been talking about changing laws and “revisiting international relationships”.

    I think this could become a big battleground approaching the election, for the worst possible reasons.

      Aye I watched PMQs also. He mentioned it in the opening statement, and then used a stool to ask the question so he could reiterate the point. Pretty stupid imo. Starmer has to get this message across as to why it is extremely bad for the people of the UK to leave the ECHR.

      I will ofc be writing to my MP.
