    The fact that multiple politicians, including former ministers, demand the UK to leave a convention on Human Rights, is an alarming signal for the new UK Authoritarianism/Fascism rising.

    At this point it is in the best interests of the people living in Northern Ireland to join the Republic, no matter their former allegiances.

      It’s in the best interest of people everywhere to stop electing fascists and wannabe fascists. Unfortunately, they are doing the exact opposite.

      It’s frustrating to watch and it feels like the whole world and everything that was achieved in the past 80 years is falling apart.
