Elon Musk’s X Withholds User Data from UK Authorities Amid Riots
Chomper Higgot replied to Social Media's topic in World News
He’s conducting business in the UK therefore he is subject to UK law on that portion of the business he conducts in the UK. The Clauses within the Acts you cite facilitate the requests of UK (and other jurisdiction) requests. -
Elon Musk’s X Withholds User Data from UK Authorities Amid Riots

It’s not a ‘first amendment’/ freedom of speech issue. It’s a matter of a business complying with the law by providing the details of accounts on its servers. If there is a freedom of speech issue that is a matter for litigation by the individuals who believe their freedom of speech is being denied. Musk’s duty is obey the law. -
There is no ‘Party structure’. Reform UK is registered as a private limited company and run as a private limited company by its owners for its owners. People who join Reform UK are not members, they are subscribers, with zero say in how the party is run or in any Reform Policies. An added irony is the party attracts ‘rebels’, people who think the ‘system’ is rigged against them. A squabbling rabble who would have you believe they are a Government in waiting.

He doesn’t, he just needs to obey the law. -
A more pragmatic approach would have been to simply change the name of the JCPOA to the ‘Trump Deal’ and leave it in place. But that would have denied the dullard the opportunity to demonstrate everything he touches dies.

Rishi Sunak Calls for ECHR Reform or UK Withdrawal
Chomper Higgot replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I think you’ll find the main reason is UK law with the ECHR ruling on a very small number of cases. Even if the UK were to leave the ECHR, which is highly unlikely, the UK would still be bound by other international treaties to which it is a signatory, example the UN Conventions on human rights and specifically that relating to refugees and asylum. -
The Constitution only withholds two rights from non citizens, the right to vote and the right to hold Federal Government Office, all other rights under the constitution are held by all person within the U.S. and its jurisdiction. There are historical examples of these rights being withheld from certain groups, usually on the basis of race. Those being some of the most shameful episodes in the abuse of Government power So yes, foreign students do have the rights of freedom of speech and freedom of association under the Constitution, but also infringement of constitutional rights is and always has been part of the abuse of Government power. Court cases will undoubtedly follow.
