The [disgusting] ways of the UK Govt/authorities continuously flies in the face of Human Rights. And I speak from first-hand experience. I have had my HR violated way too many times - and in the most horrendous ways possible!!!
@@Angelordevil. Hi and thanks for the compliments. Sadly, neither the Ombusdman nor tribunals are required of the edexcel curriculum so there's no video (is this a public policy exam? Fascinating. If you have any specific questions I could try to answer them ... BWs
Hi, using your video to help me understand the HRA. At 8.57 you say that there's "no such thing as a social right to security". However, some rights are limited and can be interfered with by the state if it benefits the wider community. Would you mind explaining the difference? Trying to get a grasp of it
Hi Judith and thanks for the interest. I think you may be mishearing me. I say (at 8.57) that 'our laws framed in terms of individual rights, if you want to go and live in somewhere you have collective rights to prosperity to security and prosperity and so on then that's communism ... as soon as you open the door to community rights then you start treating people as means to ends - if they are enemies to the community you just do away with them.' As ever I am being a bit flip but what I am trying to say is that all the rights we have describe rights held by individuals and not societies or communities. So there is no collective right to security, but every individual has a metric sh1t ton of laws protecting them from all manner of ills and upholding their rights, especially those described in the HRA. The problem with community rights is that it can allow for individuals to be excluded from the community and thereby fall on the wrong side of any community rights. And while we are here, it may be worth pointing out that all rights are constructs, even the most avowed human rights and so cannot be thought to exist in the real world. Any rights we have are essentially contractual and exist only between us, other people and the state and so will change from place to place and from time to time, all depending on whatever contract is recognised. I hope this helps and thanks again for the comment!
@@drfegg288 Thanks for the response! Nice to think about the difference between the individual and community. Can't say I'd ever thought of the law as a 'construct'. Well, maybe not so precisely...
It's a bit of a beast. You can see the 18 main articles on the slide but more details are available here: www.libertyhumanrights.org.uk/human-rights/what-are-human-rights/human-rights-act. There's more explanation here that I think is helpful ... rightsinfo.org/derogation-human-rights-convention-plain-english/
Quite right, and this was pointed out a couple of years ago. I really should make a new video but pleased to see they are still least a little useful ...! Thanks!
'because we are a serial abuser of human rights' says it all.... that 'photocopy' was actually a mirror image.... looks exactly the same but is the exact opposite!

That was beautiful
Can you make a video of 'How has the Human Rights Act 1998 improved the protection of human rights in the United Kingdom'
Did you get that as an essay question?
Good point, well made. Thanks for pointing that out and good luck this afternoon. I hope the rest of the document is helpful.
Great vid, thanks for posting
Many thanks. Do drop me any questions you have. Cheers!
You sound just like Keith Floyd the chef!!! 😎

Thanks for the feedback. Let me know if there are any other specific areas you would like covered. Also on line tutorials are available if required!
Are there any other videos about Tribunals or Ombudsmen? I really need them for my exams

What about the loopholes in Sections 1(3), 14 and 16 that give them a free pass to kill you?

How many key orders are in the human rights law

Belarus is not a part of EU. It is in Europe and it has it own “Union” with Russia since 1999. ( before as well...)
Quite right, and this was pointed out a couple of years ago. I really should make a new video but pleased to see they are still least a little useful ...! Thanks!
Who else is watching this for ILS?
Belarus isn't in the EU
