Nigel frage however say his name is asking for referendum to leave The ECHR coming from angle will stop the boats what does this mean for disabled community

It means absolutely nothing for the disabled community because this particular person does not represent the British Government. It’s absolute nonsense and absurd.

well I’d welcome a referendum I’d vote leave in a heartbeat the ECHR is outdated and used by foreign criminals who have committed serious crimes to escape deportation.Only recently an illegal migrant who has only been here a year decided to stab a soldier in Kent that would warrant deportation but no it’s human rights trumps that of its victim…outrageous, yes it’s time to leave the ECHR and bring back safety for our own people.

oh and the question would it effect disabled people absolutely not as we already have laws on discrimination against disability.

Frage is like the 'Piped Piper of Hamelin'.

He lead the race to Brexit, that ended well (it hasn't ended, never will).

That is his 'legacy'. So he will try the same nonsense with ECHR, he won't succeed.

Disabled peoples need all the protections that there are, just look at Parliament, it's not truly reflected of society, where are the MP's with disabilities?

An estimated -16.0 million people in the UK had a disability in 2021/22

This represents 24% of the total population. 

In fact we should have our own 'assembly', a bit like the Welsh and Scottish do, there are more disabled people, then the population of those countries.

Everyday it's something I Hope he doesn't succeed I know it's been on the cards for a number of years?

It won't happen, The current Government won't let it happen. The Government will point to Frage / Brexit and the disaster it's been. Brexit succeeded because of the 'multitude of lies' told at the time. The British People aren't that stupid.
