Amnesty Blasts UK’s Rights Record



LONDON (Dispatches) -- According to Amnesty International’s annual human rights report, the UK has long been "moving in the wrong direction on human rights” but matters are now "speeding towards a cliff edge”.
In the organization’s 408-page report, the UK government received strong criticism for its human rights violations in relation to "health, immigration policies, race discrimination, domestic abuse and housing”. On the Covid-19 panddemic, the report spotlighted the country’s "extremely high” death toll and stressed that the UK’s response has raised grave human rights concerns.
