The pandemic has shown us existing inequalities in a new light. But it also shows us positives, like how the UK's mostly non-religious population has benefited from the new moral order that it forged: one 'based on empathy and not on commandments'. politics.co.uk/comment-analy…

Parliamentarians create essential accountability for governmental actions. During the #COVID19 pandemic, this responsibility is magnified:
MPs need to ensure human rights are upheld, especially women's rights which are threatened in crises #SRHR ⚖️

It’s time to stop the spread of hate against #LGBTI people.
It’s imperative that @coe member states react quickly to stem the current backlash.
Hate mongering should have no place in Europe.
