Crime and Policing BillContribution
I feel very strongly about human rights. The United Kingdom has binding obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights, especially in relation to torture, inhuman or degrading treatment and modern slavery. A system that pre-emptively grants immunity risks putting us in breach of those obligations. It matters for the protection of children who have been authorised as covert sources.
