'The argument that we leave the ECHR is complete nonsense...it is absolute drivel.' Former Conservative Party chairman, Lord Patten, does not hold back in his scathing analysis of Robert Jenrick's plans.

The only thing I remember about Patten is that Maggie sent him to Hong Kong to get him out of the way and when he returned all he could do was whine about his dogs having to go through quarantine like everyone else's. A superficial and serial non-entity of a man.

The UK is a sovereign nation. If the ECHR is so important leave it and pass a law in PARLIAMENT to replace it. The idea that a sovereign nation be subject to some supranational set of law is what's "weird."

Drivel is an understatement. Jenrick knows he'd never be able to follow through on his rhetoric. Just like Farage and the Reformorons, they can talk a big game, knowing they'll never be in a position to act on it.

Jenrick will backpedal quicker than a clown on a unicycle on every promise he’s made to carry on with the Sunak/ Cameron Tory wet dynasty!

The Conservative Party is not conservative and they will stab you in the back the second they can.

Wheeling out the out of touch old fogies again.

Never thought I would agree with a Tory but bravo Lord Patten 👏👏👏 Jenrick is a Trojan Horse, bankrolled from the shadows. Nasty piece of work with a rap sheet for deceit!

Strange how Australians and Canadians and most of the rest of the world’s bastions of democracy manage all their affairs whilst not being tied into the ECHR

I’m starting to really hate this station which I once loved. All the same globalist presenters spouting the same globalist bullshit.

Agree. If it's too much hassle to leave just ignore it.
