UK: "We need to leave ECHR to deport immigrants."

Reality:
- UK already FOUND IN VIOLATION by European Court
- GCHQ surveillance ruled unlawful — nothing changed
- We're building the surveillance state NOW

The BBC and the Grauniad are both suggesting that Josh Simons may be a major player in Andy #Burnham's new regime. If so, that sounds like very bad news indeed.

Simons is the man who used to run Labour Together, the pro #Israel thinktank which pushed the #Antisemitism smear story about #Corbyn. He was later involved in a major scandal involving lies about journalists told to #GCHQ.

Not a man who should be near power.

The European Court of Human Rights ruled GCHQ's mass surveillance UNLAWFUL.

14 judges dissented. Three quoted Orwell's 1984:

"There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment."

GCHQ Chief Warns UK Businesses to Bolster Cyber Defenses as AI Reshapes Threats

Protecting your systems is now a front-line defence for our nation, economy, and way of life - it's time for UK businesses to treat cybersecurity as a national defence priority, not just an IT issue. With AI-driven threats evolving rapidly, the window to bolster your cyber defences is narrowing.
