"Concerned at the UK Government’s intentions to review the #HumanRights framework and #JudicialReview we have come together to state:
While every system could be improved, and protecting #rights and #freedoms for all is a balancing act, our #HumanRightsAct is a proportionate and well-drafted protection for the fundamental #liberties and #responsibilities of everyone in this country.
The Act guarantees the rights to #FreeSpeech and expression, to life, to #liberty, to security, to privacy, to assembly, and to #FreedomOfReligion or belief. It prohibits torture and guarantees fair trials and the #RuleOfLaw.
Judicial review is an indispensable mechanism for individuals to assert those rights and freedoms against the power of the state." https://humanrightsact.org.uk/
