The government has started a 10-week consultation over plans for police forces to expand the use of facial recognition. Ruth Ehrlich, from human rights organisation Liberty, expresses concerns over expanded use and says the tech should only be used for 'specific purposes'.

🆔The evidence is on the table - a centralised digital ID system poses huge digital security risks. The Windrush compensation scheme and the 25,000 Afghan nationals whose data was breached show how things have gone seriously wrong with UK Home Office projects - @ruth_ehrlich explains.

Two tiers of policing? Absurd accusations of so called 'soft' policing of Muslims and communities of colour who have long been subject to abuses of police power, and yet here we are criminalising the most common phrase uttered by Muslims, everyday.
Runnymede Trust@RunnymedeTrust

This is appallingly Islamophobic, ironically summing up "two tiers of policing" myth Instead of threatening the victims of the worst racist violence the UK has seen in decades, focus should be on dealing with the perpetrators - the racist mobs attacking Muslim people and mosques

We stand in solidarity with the communities who have been affected by the horrifying scenes of racist, Islamophobic violence in the past week. These are not protests, they are acts of violence against some of the most marginalised people in our society. libertyhumanrights.org.uk/issue/liberty-…

BREAKING: The High Court rules that the Government's anti-protest legislation is unlawful, in a major victory for campaigners Liberty The Court found Suella Braverman had lowered the threshold for police to intervene to even cover protests with 'normal' levels of disruption.

The Government's cruel Rwanda Bill will now become law It rips human rights away from people who come to the UK hoping for safety for them and their loved ones With @FreefromTorture + @AmnestyUK, we transformed Parliament to let everyone know about this crime against compassion
