My experience with @DominicRaab after
discussing my case that stopped the PM putting themselves above the law, on @BBCr4todayed shocked me. He was aggressive, said I was a naïve, stupid woman. That I'd had my 5 mins of fame!

Another encounter made me think he's also racist
1/3
Preparing for @bbcquestiontime with @DominicRaab @MrNishKumar - Mr Raab displayed his ignorance, arrogance and racism.
I recant the encounter on P74 of my book Rise: Life Lessons in Speaking Out, Standing Tall & Leading the Way 2019

On his political record, #DominicRaab numerous failings, including on #brexit #justice shame him.

Remember this is the man who wanted to decimate our #HumanRights in a new Bill!
@VoteTrueAndFair

If #RishiSunak has any integrity left - he must sack Dominic Raab ASAP!

As headlines swirl, let's take a step back:
1) Evidence of #DowningStreetParties has been sitting on many people's desks & consciences since early 2020 and only became known due to infighting in Tory Party. Nothing to do with the country, shame or awareness of the hypocrisy.
1/5
2) Evidence is being gathered by #SueGray a civil servant who'll report to #Boris - he'll then be judge & jury on what happens next including deciding if her recommendations are published.
A report with no legal standing.
A further pointless waste of taxpayers' money.
#PMQs
2/5
3) #metpolice hide behind the 4 Es they say they operate under during #COVID19 - engage, explain, encourage observation of the law, before enforcement. I'd add a 5th EVADING!
No investigating of historic rule-breaking but they must've witnessed/seen the parties on CCTV etc

Interesting week for the art of political distraction.
#europesuperleague either fan-power or competition law would've halted the plan, but political speed to bank political capital was unprecedented. Compare with days it took for PM to react to violence in Northern Ireland

#Boris & his Govt's slow reaction to #COVIDSecondWaveInIndia #GreensillScandal why Defence Minister Johnny Mercer is being dismissed, @GoodLawProject discovery yesterday about #Torysleaze donor awarded a £100m #PPE contract & why his name why redacted

#Boris needs to answer why Cruddas got a peerage despite cash-for-access scandal. Why he overrode his ethics adviser on @pritipatel bullying/breaking Ministerial Code. ?s on #ArcuriAffair & her business receiving public money. Why he missed the 1st 5 emergency #covid meetings

Tomorrow #Govt isn't introducing a new Act as some are reporting. It’s a vote to renew powers as required by S98 #coronavirus Act 2020 legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2020/7/s… . Motion “That the temporary provisions of the Coronavirus Act 2020 should not yet expire.”
whatson.parliament.uk/event/cal34363
1/9
1st review was in Sept 2020 when I & others urged #MPS NOT to renew the powers as HMG already have necessary powers under existing legislation & due to our concerns of mass scale curtailing of our civil liberties & the creation of an unintentional wave of #authoritarianism
2/9
In the Sept review, at least crisis changes to the Mental Health Act were removed as they had reduced the number of doctors needed to make decisions about someone's care, mental health capacity, sectioning & had increased timeframes people could be detained against their will

Make no mistake, under the cover of #COVID19 this government is profiteering in terms of power. I've been trying to get people to wake up – eg article I wrote in Dec 2020 theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
But against the back drop of last night on #ClaphamCommon
1/11
And the #PoliceCrimeSentencingCourtsBill coming before #Parliament tomorrow/Tues, we need a social media storm before we end up with a police state where our silence results in our civil liberties eroded in ways that it will be almost impossible to claw back.
2/11
The Bill's factsheets are here gov.uk/government/pub… - but how can 300 pages was only published last Tuesday with the deadline for Mps to speak on Friday & with 2 days to debate not be undermining Parliament's sovereignty and our fundamental rights?

Today #Labour is calling for emergency legislation to remove "dangerous #antivax content", such as posts against the use of #Vaccines - whilst there's an urgent need for action in respect of the #pandemic , this is only one symptom of a much bigger issue re #socialmedia
1/3
Big tech companies are allowed to make billions with impunity. They have too much power over our economy, society, health, democracy & discourse. Platforms that allow abuse, distortion of truth & bullying on industrial scales are to poisoning our lives

Crime has moved online, hiding in plain sight & exploiting the vulnerable: fake job ads soared by 70% since March, online financial scams increased by 80% this year. Funding platform GoFundMe allowed this '£10,000 to kill Gina Miller' page for 5 mths huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/gina-mil…

As more people question the number of time Govt is bypassing #Parliament to restrict our lives; and question why they're still allowed to do so, even though we're not in the state of emergency as we were in March, might I remind MPs & commentators that many of us flagged this
1/6
when the #Coronavirus Bill was introduced to House of Commons 19 March 2020, not only was it being rushed through & was complex and lengthy, it contained significant constitutional & civil liberties implications - inc creating extensive delegated powers & Henry VIII powers.
2/6
Many of these powers are subject to a limited form of parliamentary scrutiny and others are not subject to ANY parliamentary procedure whatsoever. Since the Act received Royal Assent 25 March, 90+ coronavirus laws and rules have been imposed without Parliamentary scrutiny
