β€œi used to live there” is such a sad phrase. seeing places u used to live in is an odd thing. It’s like β€˜i know where the best hiding place is in there. my bedroom was the one directly to the left as you walk in. i took my first steps on that flooring. i used to play in that yard with my grandma. she died two years ago. that was the only place i ever knew. those walls contain all of my childhood memories. i can no longer go there, but i know every corner like the back of my hand.’

the uk government is trying to scrap the human rights act.

i’ve not seen a lot in the media about this so i’m going to do my best to put this into words and explain what will happen if the government is successful in replacing the human rights act with the bill of rights (aka the rights removal bill).

this will mean that in the uk:

  • you won’t be allowed to say anything negative about the government
  • if you are disabled or chronically ill, you won’t be allowed to say no to being given a DNR in hospital
  • you won’t be allowed to bring β€˜trivial’ human rights violations to court
  • public authorities (the police) won’t have to actively protect people’s human rights
  • the uk military will be allowed to basically do whatever they want overseas
  • if you ever commit a crime, they can disregard your human rights
  • the government will not be obligated to obey human rights

if you are from the uk PLEASE sign this petition, and also to everyone else, please please please share this.
