1. I've previously argued - at @LordsEUCom, @Europarl_EN & via @ConversationUK - that continued uncertainty re #citizensrights may constitute violation of Art 8 ECHR: theconversation.com/eu-citizens-ri… data.parliament.uk/writtenevidenc… @BRinEUROPE @NewEuropeans @HaringeyLibDems
2. ECtHR has found that where uncertainty & precariousness of individual’s situation affects network of his or her personal, social & economic relations, there can be an infringement of Art 8. A situation of insecurity should in any case be short-lived. @BRinEUROPE @NewEuropeans
3. I now want to take this a bit further & suggest that continued precariousness sh perhaps be examined in context of 'hostile environment' vis-a-vis immigrants, e.g. re immigration exception in Data Proetction, bank accounts checks, surprise raids etc @NewEuropeans @libertyhq
The Tory #Brextremist attack on the Civil Service parallels Trump's attack on the FBI. It comes after the Tory & press attack on judicial oversight of government in the Article 50 case, and in a context dominated by right-wing press disinformation.

What we appear to be witnessing is a concerted attack to undermine the institutions and practices that underpin democracy. Democracy relies on a basic degree of truthfulness, without it there can be no meaningful debate. The Right is relentlessly attacking truth.
