This proposal in much needed because so many cities, Seattle included, unlawfully “sweep” street residencies of #unhoused people, destroying and disposing their belongings. Establishing these points as rights is vital to us all. Representative Cori Bush reintroduces bill of rights for unhoused people. #sweeps #BillOfRights #housing https://www.democracynow.org/2023/8/2/headlines/rep_cori_bush_reintroduces_unhoused_bill_of_rights

Great news that the *bill of rights" is scrapped, but do read @CarolineLucas's absolutely devastating list of things that were wrong with this appalling legislation. Conservatives are truly dangerous in the driving seat. We must get them out.

Caroline Lucas: Finally! Breathing a big sigh of relief as we hear Raab's destructive #BillOfRights has been scrapped. My amendment has been on Commons order paper every single day for months, urging them to scrap this draconian anti-democratic legislation - glad Ministers eventually took notice https://t.co/9EIpR1pOCJ

The Founders wrote the #Constitution; not the Apostles. They added the #BillofRights; not the Ten Commandments. Their intent was #FreedomofReligion. It was not Control by Religion. They created a #Democracy; not a Theocracy. Christianity is not a political party. #DefendDemocracy

RT @BillofRightsNI: We were very proud to be able to collaborate with them on this final stage of their @jrct_uk funded research which shows that 25 years on the need for a #BillofRights is as strong as ever. 2/5

The British Institute of Human Rights (BIHR) and 157 other organisations have written to PM Rishi Sunak calling on him to abandon plans to scrap the HRA once and for all.

They say they “write with heavy hearts that the UK government’s approach to our domestic law risks taking us further and further away from the legal protection of human rights”

@jbf1755 hope they plan on reading the amendments, bill of rights, as well, it’s not a stone tablet, it’s a working document, which we as a people have and will continue to update as we progress towards a fair and more equal society for all #BillOfRights

Biden's Office of Science & Tech Policy released a "Blueprint for an #AI #BillOfRights" https://www.whitehouse.gov/ostp/ai-bill-of-rights/

I led a discussion last week at the #Clemson #MUSC #AIHub on it's relevance to clinical AI. In some ways, we're ahead of other AI fields and some ways behind.

No teeth, because it is just "guidance" but I do thinks it's interesting what details they included under each of the 5 principles.

Notes to follow.

RT @nazirafzal: The Govt’s ill-thought out & dangerous #BillOfRights is the first law in a 1000 years that TAKES AWAY rights you have

Good people made enormous sacrifices, even lost their lives, for these rights

That’s a legacy worth fighting for

RT @WomaninHavana: Finally, for tonight. I’m reminded of something I wrote in 2017:

“Rights don’t often seem as though they matter, until they do. By then, it might be too late.”

Excellent speech, well worth a listen. Important balance on those worried about new #BillOfRights. Useful quetion on contradiction between Bill's emphasis on protecting free speech, and the contradictory threat of the #OnlineSafetyBill to remove lawful (but harmful) speech.
