This morning @BBCBreakfast, #7Daysofaction report on placement of learning disabled people in distant ATUs. See @MarkNeary1. #HumanRightsAct https://t.co/cxlfWdV5Ro

[Mark Neary @MarkNeary1]

Interesting that Human Rights Act came up in @BBCBreakfast report. For me, it's the only chance we've got. #7daysofaction

#7daysofaction @BBCnews services say we apply MHA. My work @BIHRhumanrights shows not enough, applying #HumanRights via HRA what is needed.

Spot on: #HumanRightsAct was needed for @jaysoncarmicha1 @PaulRutherford8 families in #BedroomTax case https://t.co/gIeSl35Lbr #ActfortheAct https://t.co/HBD1UR8Vw4

[Fuad Alakbarov ⁠⁠ @DrAlakbarov]

It was the #HumanRightsAct that enabled people to go to court to object against the bedroom tax. Human rights are there to protect all of us

[Act for the Act @actfortheact]

Exactly, @davidallengreen. #ActfortheAct https://t.co/Dlu0NDWtll

[Act for the Act @actfortheact]

Exactly. We must #ActfortheAct - we need to shout from the rooftops about the good the #HumanRightsAct does & challenge the many myths. https://t.co/F4UhIXt5WS

[Anthony Lester @Odysseus_Trust]

The Tory threat to weaken the Human Rights Act and Geneva Convention is ridiculous and in breach of the rule of law

The #HumanRightsAct is for all of us. It brought @MarkNeary1's son home. Sign Mark's petition here: https://t.co/pwAZVueK1S
