Must watch on leaving the ECHR
#BBCQT
Lady in glasses, "Are you really considering leaving the ECHR to push forward the Rwanda policy which is inhumane"
*Huge clap from the audience while the camera shows Rishi Sunak looks like a rabbbit in headlights*
Rishi Sunak, "15 other European countries signed a statement about asylum seekers.. You have your view.. I disagree"
Fiona Bruce, "Will you leave the ECHR?"
Rishi Sunak, "I disagree with you. 15 other European countries signed the statement and agree with me"
Lady in glasses, "Didn't the UK Supreme Court call it unlawful?"
Rishi Sunak, "We passed a new piece of legislation.. If a foreign court including the ECHR forces me to chose between our security and a foriegn court, I chose our security every single time"
*audience shout out shame*
Fiona Bruce, "When you say it's a foreign court.. Great Britain set it up and we have a UK judge on the ECHR"
Rishi Sunak, "Yes, but it is in Strasbourg.. It's not a British court"
Fiona Bruce, "We were instrumental in setting it up"
Rishi Sunak waffles then looks away to another question
Fiona Bruce asks the questioner what she said
Lady in glasses, "I asked if he's considering leaving the ECHR.. Rishi Sunak is putting words in my mouth"
Arrogant, entitled, populist, drivel from Prime Minister Rishi Sunak
