A new bill of rights is set to replace the Human Rights Act, if the Tories get their way. Well, we’re all sick of too many human rights claims, aren’t we? Ripping up the Human Rights Act means stripping us of our most powerful tool to challenge wrongs by UK govt & other public bodies. But if this government thinks we'll just let them dismantle our Human Rights Act & make it harder to hold them accountable… They've got another thing coming. The Tories don’t care about what it looks like – how else could they go ahead with wanting to withdraw us from international human rights standards?
