Not only is planning to rejoin the EU popular and the right thing to do, but it would put Farage on the back foot, forcing him to defend the disaster of Brexit.

A considerably higher proportion of the electorate than that would have little if any idea about the substantive content of the convention – or indeed, about many other rather salient aspects of that and why it is in the interests of 70 million UK residents to remain bound by the convention.

I think if we'd had everything promised by the Leave campaign I might have shut up about it by now. But it hasn't quite gone that way, has it?

Isle of Wight perhaps? It voted to Leave the European Union in the 2016 Brexit referendum with 61.9% of the vote. Also the Brexit Party won 46% of the vote there in the 2019 European Elections.

I doubt the majority of people know what the ECHR is or what it does. Those Farage fans think that it is part of the EU and stops people from being repatriated, they can but only 2 cases from the Uk have been to the court and it has nothing to do with the EU. I think that Churchill helped set it up

Also it is a condition of the Good Friday Agreement that we remain in the ECHR. A fact overlooked by everyone.

The fact that a 1/4 of people want to be classified alongside backward shitholes like Russia & Belarus speaks volumes. Some properly ignorant, empty, worthless cunts in the UK.

Usually when people want to lie they write out what the lie is... They don't just write the word "Lies" I don't think you've quite got the hang of this...
