This is highly unlikely. The entire British right has pinned the blame on the ECHR, and are thus running on the presumption that nothing can be done until we've formally departed along with all the flanking conventions. This will be an arduous diplomatic and legislative chore that will not happen in a hurry - if it happens at all. A Reform government would have a limited mandate, limited political capital, and not nearly enough competence to complete the process successfully - especially without a coherent idea of what model we're transitioning to.

Far from being one-sided, the agreement signed last Friday places serious obligations on a future Reform government to put Britain's house in order on illegal migration quickly once it gets into office.

The vast majority of these cases come from the British immigration tribunal system, not the ECHR. The problem is the HRA. Don't fall for this lazy slop.

The European Court of Human Rights does not work for Britain anymore.

What was once set up to help those fleeing conflict in Europe has led to all of Asia and Africa having the right to come to our shores and claim asylum, with only a portion being from genuine conflict zones, with cultures far different to ours, and many safe countries passed through.

It is time we pulled out and wrote laws that make sense for Britain. 🇬🇧

Are we saying we can trust a French populist movement not to offload its immigration problems?

Farage and Bardella defied critics who claimed they were only capable of jingoistic unilateralism. Those critics have now pinned their hopes on a bust-up on the French Right. My column for @TheCriticMag
