It would appear the the UK government is trying to replace the human rights act with the Equality act.
After researching the equality act we found it very difficult to work out exactly what rights people have and those we could work out only cover selective groups. This would empower child social services and other organisations to dismiss the majority of people's current human rights.
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2010/15/section/6 This is a very confusing document for anyone without legal training to understand. However, we did find the following website that is easier to understand. https://www.equalityhumanrights.com/en/advice-and-guidance/your-rights-under-equality-act-2010
As you will see from reading either of these websites this act in no way covers the complexity of the human rights act and does not cover the general public to the same degree.

The above links are the best we have found in relation to understanding your human rights as they currently stand.
It is our belief that we should keep our human rights and that these human rights should be upheld.
Looking at the abuse of power and disrespect for our fundamental human rights, we believe that where you can prove a breach of human rights by governmental bodies such as child social services you should contact the OHCHR for guidance on how to fight against these breaches. If enough people speak out then maybe the government will have to take notice.

Finally we would like to cover your legal rights.

Please note that this information from the government seems to contradict other governmental legislations.
for example; Contempt of court. Where, looking at other acts and legislations or even court rules contempt of court also covers using false information.
Contempt of court
‘Contempt of court’ happens when someone risks unfairly influencing a court case. It may stop somebody from getting a fair trial and can affect a trial’s outcome.
Contempt of court includes:
- disobeying or ignoring a court order
- taking photos or shouting out in court
- refusing to answer the court’s questions if you’re called as a witness
- publicly commenting on a court case, for example on social media or online news articles
If you’re found to be in contempt of court, you could go to prison for up to 2 years, get a fine, or both.
Publicly commenting on a court case
You might be in contempt of court if you speak publicly or post on social media.
For example, you should not:
- say whether you think a person is guilty or innocent
- refer to someone’s previous convictions
- name someone the judge has allowed to be anonymous, even if you did not know this
- name victims, witnesses and offenders under 18
- name sex crime victims
- share any evidence or facts about a case that the judge has said cannot be made public
As always if you are aware of any legislations, acts or laws that should be covered in this section but have not been included please use our comments section to inform us with links to the information.
