🚨The House of Lords has just removed Gov's plan to criminalise noisy protests from the #PolicingBill AGAIN
This means MPs now have the chance to get rid of it for good next week
We’re so close to defeating this undemocratic plan
Email your MP today action.libertyhumanrights.or…
🚨The #PolicingBill is back TODAY🚨
Protest isn't a gift from the State - it's OUR RIGHT
But Gov wants to criminalise noisy protests
Noise is at the heart of protest
The House of Lords must stand up for protest rights and bin this dangerous and unworkable proposal

This plan to reform the Human Rights Act:
1. is a power grab from a government that wants to put themselves above the law
2. will make it harder for people to stand up for their rights and to hold public bodies to account when those rights are breached

Dear @MoJGovUK
The deadline for this consultation is tomorrow. You've had three months.
Why was the easy read doc only published today?
Where is the audio version that was promised?
Disabled people have been blocked from having their say on human rights.
Extend the deadline
We’re launching a consultation on overhauling our human rights framework to create a modern Bill of Rights.
We will propose changes that will strengthen UK courts & rights we cherish, like freedom of speech & trial by jury.
Have your say on the reforms: consult.justice.gov.uk/human…

Our freedom to protest is under attack.
The #PolicingBill would throw protestors into prison for doing exactly the same as the Suffragettes did.
For all those who fought for our freedoms, throughout history, we must #KillTheBill. #PCSCBill

In the face of adversity, allies come together. It's clear this Commission wants to set race relations back by 20 years - we're not going to let that happen. Stay mobilised, stay engaged, stay positive.

What? Judicial Review reform. Why? Unclear.
The evidence – and it appears that the Government’s independent panel agrees – is that the right balance has already been struck.
It is of concern that the Government continues to suggest differently.
