YouTube video by British Institute of Human Rights Call to Action - A Defining Moment for Universal Human Rights

NHS backlogs, housing shortages and rising inequality are rights issues - they won't be solved by weakening human rights.

The real pressures people face require serious rights-based policy solutions, not scapegoating universal rights.
