Nigel Farage has said violent UK offenders could be jailed overseas under his plans to cut crime by half.
The Reform UK leader named El Salvador as a likely destination, though he said he has not held conversations with officials there and “multiple” partners would be considered.
El Salvador is home to a notorious mega-prison, the Terrorism Confinement Center (CECOT).
Poilievre isn’t a Trump clone. Trump is perceived as an outsider to politics, someone who isn’t a normal politician. Poilievre hasn’t had any other jobs than being a politician, and tried to run with Trump’s policies. I’m not going to say that’s why he lost the election, but he’s a long way from being a clone since he lacked one of the major traits that most people who would vote for Trump would identify with.
That’s a good point, actually. It’s worth noting, though, that Trump ran as the anti-elite candidate - a fact that is beyond absurd for someone who inherited almost a billion dollars. If a Manhattan billionaire can run as an everyman, maybe Poillievre’s long participation in Candian politics and his role under Harper would not prevent him running as a ‘political outsider.’ People might be dumb enough to believe it.
