Friends, "THEY'RE YOUR RIGHTS: FIGHT FOR THEM" is the campaign to ensure people's human rights under EU law are saved from the process of Brexit. https://www.crowdjustice.org/case/your-rights/ We had great news last week when Brexiteer MP Zac Goldsmith lost his seat in Richmond Park to Sarah Olney, who ran an overtly pro-European campaign. This reduces Theresa May’s majority and could help shift the debate towards a soft Brexit, where we keep a strong relationship with our European partners. This week will also be an important as one of the biggest constitutional cases for a generation will be heard at the UK Supreme Court on Article 50. The process of Brexit matters because the rights contained in EU law are so important to people’s lives. Whatever the judgment, we’re working to make sure MPs do not water down a single one of our hard-fought for human rights. Our fundraiser is doing so well: We can reach our stretch target - help us stop the government from taking our rights: https://www.crowdjustice.org/case/your-rights/ For those of you who haven’t donated yet, here is how your donations will help our campaign take action: http://www.89up.org/news/why-we-must-fight-back-against-brexecutive-power We will be working with leading human rights lawyers to argue why we should keep these fundamental rights and then we will take these arguments to the politicians who influence the debate in parliament. STOP PRESS: Also this week, we’ll be launching infographics to explain to the public the rights that derive from the EU. We’ll be back in touch next week to send you the infographics - let us know what you think!
