Amnesty International UK: Protect the Human Rights Act - ONLINE PETITION

from Amnesty International UK

    Every single one of us is protected by the Human Rights Act – but right now, it’s at risk in the UK. Don’t let universal freedoms turn into privileges for a chosen few. Send a clear message to our next government
 before it’s too late: human rights matter.
   Ordinary British people have fought and died for the rights we enjoy today. The Human Rights Act helps us to fight injustice in the UK, holding those in power to account.  
   It’s an invisible safety net for everyone – used to bring families back together, secure justice for rape survivors whose experiences haven’t been properly investigated by the police, and return dignity to disabled people whose rights have been violated.
   We must not let politicians take away these universal rights. It is the most vulnerable who will pay the heaviest price.
   Add your voice now!
