  1. The proposed #UKGov #PIP Law actually appears to be unlawful!

    ‘The legal opinion says: “there can be no doubt that the reforms are regressive in #HumanRights terms. Therefore, in accordance with the principle of non-retrogression, they are presumed to be prohibited under #UNCRPD, #ICESCR and #UNCRC. Accordingly, the burden falls on the Government to show that despite the regressive nature of the reforms, they are complying with their obligations under the Treaties.”’

  5. s our #RightsInAction project makes clear - poverty is a breach of our human rights.

    It's great that the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child is now in Scots Law.

    Now we'll work with our members and others to make those rights a reality. #UNCRC

  9. Imprisoning A Child is A ‘Flagrant Violation’ Of The Law, Yet Police Freely Violate The Law, 77% Of Detentions In UP

    Despite the Supreme Court calling the detention of children ‘a flagrant violation of the law’, right-to-information data reveals at least 79 such detentions, 61 from Uttar Pradesh alone over five years. Juvenile justice law clearly says that no child in conflict with the law can be placed in a police lock-up or jail.

  14. Scotland's top law officer, Lord Advocate Dorothy Bain KC, has ordered a review of how diversion from prosecution is used in sex crime cases.

    A key factor to cases like these is that the alleged perpetrator is often a child as are those affected - i.e. all teenagers. The #UNCRC is relevant to under 18s.

    CW: contains complainers/victims/survivors and their advocates mentioning rape and sexual assault.

  29. My question on #TheRestIsPolitice podcast, discussed today:
    100 yrs ago #EglantyneJebb drafted the pioneering statement of children’s rights that became the #UNCRC.
    Now 200 asylum-seeking children have ‘disappeared’ from #HomeOffice commissioned hotels.
    Where is the outrage? What’s being done?
    Thank you to #AlaisterCampbell & #RoryStewart

  32. Met with Mikiko Otani, Chair #UNCRC. I reaffirmed 🇪🇺 commitment to the protection of children who fled 🇺🇦: our constant focus has been the protection of the most vulnerable, and notably children - unaccompanied, separated children, and children from institutions. #EUChildRights

  37. So just in case video games are not caught by the #DSA (as well as the Directive on Supply of Digital Content), the European parliament has just approved a draft report on video games. This is from the Internal Market and Consumer Protection committee. This seems to build on work done on #LootBoxes as well as #AddictiveDesign. Main focus is protection of children, with ref to #UNCRC. Does acknowledge in passing some benefits too of video games.
