We were delighted to play our part in launching a Hate Crime Strategy for Scotland.

We must ensure Race / Religious minority human rights holders directly inform the delivery strategy + Race equality policies that affect them

Our pleasure too attend @GDA__online Hate Crime conference today to talk about the Hate Crime Strategy for Scotland consultation. Intersectionality is a key theme to address via any future strategy to tackle prejudice and hate.

2/2 Scotland MUST move beyond the national and local government reality that ethnic minority communities are being made to compete against each other for their human rights to be respected and fulfilled. Human Rights and Equalities protections codified in law must be respected.

[BEMIS Scotland @bemis_scotland]

1/2 'Scottish Mental Health Law Review Final Report' has identified huge gaps between policy and real life. Rights holders are gaslighted by services, undermined, not listened too by Government, Police and key services. Supposed to be protected by Law but ignored in practice

[BEMIS Scotland @bemis_scotland]

1/2 Inflation crisis presents a significant threat to our members and networks, particularly those with No Recourse to Public Fund. We have written too @ScotGovFM and @UKGovScotland to request urgent engagement with @ethnic_network on 22/09 at our next national meeting.

[Dr.Radia @Radia_2022]

The research recommendation for COVID 19 Vaccination Experience was precious.
