      @@strife2746 She was convicted by a national Vienna court not ECHR. ECHR has only jurisdiction to contradict national laws when they would infringe human rights. She tried to use article 10 of the ECHR convention. Article 10 of the Convention states: "Everyone has the right to freedom of expression. This right shall include freedom to hold opinions and to receive and impart information and ideas without interference by public authority and regardless of frontiers. This Article shall not prevent States from requiring the licensing of broadcasting, television or cinema enterprises."
      "The exercise of these freedoms, since it carries with it duties and responsibilities, may be subject to such formalities, conditions, restrictions or penalties as are prescribed by law and are necessary in a democratic society, in the interests of national security, territorial integrity or public safety, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals, for the protection of the reputation or rights of others, for preventing the disclosure of information received in confidence, or for maintaining the authority and impartiality of the judiciary." This clearly lets national law maintain limits on what freedom of expression can contain and thus does not fall under the jurisdiction of the ECHR. I find it appalling that you try to throw an well established and well regarded institution as the ECHR under the bus without doing proper investigation in the case you are referring to. She was convicted under Austrian laws by an Austrian court. The ECHR has very little to do with it.

      Honestly, EU asylum policy based on old international treaties (which the ECHR enforces) is also pretty much bankrupt. 60%+ rejected asylum claims. 19% of rejected asylum claimants actually leave the EU (according to EU supreme auditor). That's an enormous problem.
      The EU pays the Libyan coastguard to keep people away. Frontex helped pushbacks in Greece. EC supports Poland pushing back migrants flown in from Belarus. It's a big mess and it needs an update. But as you can see, people will just shout "racists removing human rights" and they then continue to ignore the problem.
      When the original treaties could only exist in a world that wasn't as globalized so people from poor countries didn't find it as easy to travel as it is now.

      ​@@Seth9809 I think you're underestimating (or just completely ignoring) cultural distance and the barrier it can be to good integration. Cultural relativism doesn't work: it takes more effort to integrate someone from Somalia into a western country (and viceversa) than it does to integrate someone from Sweden into a western country. Level of education is another big predictor.
      Not to mention the simple economic burden hosting many on average low-education people with large cultural distance. Compromise the welfare state too much and international solidarity breaks down. I see it in my country (the Netherlands) in the lower classes. They lack solidarity because social housing queues are increased as asylum recipients get to skip the queue. 12% of social housing is given to asylum recipients per year. That increases queues for low income Dutch people newly starting the queue to get social housing by 50%.
      And then we're not even mentioning the return rate of rejected asylum seekers of 19%. That's terrible, it means the whole asylum distinction barely matters.
      Especially with big diasporas which allow you to carry on your own culture in an enclave in the new country.
      The stuff you mention was accompanied with a lot of violence and misery and not a peaceful model of integration that we strive towards today.

    Just to clarify: You cannot apply for asylum in the UK if you’re still in your home country.

Although international subjects are normally only bound by customs, treaties, and principles publicly accepted by them by ratification / faithfull observation, there are some international norms, called "ius cogens" which every international subject has to obey by virtue of them being considered universal peremptory norms for all of humanity, such norms include the prohibition of torture and genocide, basic labor protections, the universal declaration of human rights, etc. Tho what is and isn't considered ius cogens is a point of contention, most scholars agree that the majority of the geneva convention are ius cogens norms.

    What I simply don't get and cannot understand is why, WHY would any refugee or illegal immigrant want to go to a country that does not want you there and has policies in place to make your life absolutely miserable for going there?
    WHY?
    Particularly since the rest of europe seems more keen on accepting and helping refugees, why would you WANT to go to the UK? It just defies all logic and reason and common sense. And it isn't like you can get there by walking or hitchiking, it takes a special kind of effort to get a boat or a makeshift raft to float up there.
    It makes more sense for Mexicans to run to the US because its the wealthiest nation in the world, literally the only option to the north, with the south being more poor countries with equally corrupt governments, and so on. But why the FUCK would you go to the UK as that whole society is backsliding deeper into xenophobia.
