โ Section 3 of our Human Rights Act helps make human rights real โ The UK Govt is trying to get rid of it in the #RightsRemovalBill #RefugeeBanBill & Victims & Prisoners Bill ๐ฃ We've joined 40+ orgs raising concerns with @HumanRightsCtte: https://bit.ly/3AqO7ei
We believe that this #RightsRemovalBill will undermine #AllOurRights and significantly impact the realisation of rights for individuals whose #HumanRights are currently most at risk
The UK Government should scrap this Bill
#ScrapTheBillOfRights #ScrapTheBill
The #RightsRemovalBill will repeal the #HumanRightsAct. If this Bill becomes law, it will strip rights from people and reduce #accesstojustice for all. With 123 civil society organisations, we've sent our joint briefing to every MP ๐https://bit.ly/3QnXuk8 #AllOurRights

#RightsRemovalBill published.
A naked and shameful power grab.
We all stand to lose.
We're going to fight with all our might for the rights of children and young people.
Read the Bill here:
For our Director @jenanglaw "these proposals could restrict our rights and reduce #accesstojustice โ making it harder for people in #SCOTLAND who face discrimination & inequality to seek protection from harm and redress for injustice"
