Excellent news from the #IsleOfMan – the bill to remove the bishop’s vote in #Tynwald has progressed! 👇 secularism.org.uk/news/2024/04/b… Congratulations @LawrieHooper!
Our exposure of new charities stoking fears about 'black magic' and promoting #exorcism has been reported in @CivilSocietyUK. We're glad the Charity Commission is looking into this and hope it'll conclude this is inappropriate for a charity. civilsociety.co.uk/news/regulator…
A newly registered Islamic charity is stoking fears around “Black Magic” and has launched an ‘#exorcism’ service. These are the beliefs that fuel #SpiritualAbuse. secularism.org.uk/news/2024/04/i…
Great to catch up with #UN Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion or belief @NazilaGhanea to discuss #FoRB issues domestic and global. Strong agreement that this right belongs to everyone regardless of religion or belief - and that it should protect people, not their beliefs.
The @UNHumanRights Committee has warned gay #ConversionTherapy may be considered “a protected religious practice in Northern Ireland”, following an NSS briefing. secularism.org.uk/news/2024/04/u…
New build homeowners are being told they have to sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) if they want to see details of their estate charges. My investigation on #fleecehold fees for @theipaper here ⬇️ and a thread 🧵 inews.co.uk/news/housing/n…
Thanks @ObserverUK & @JonUngoedThomas for inviting SHAC's comment, and exposing the 40% service charge rises by @LQHomesMatter + @Clarion_Group. These are the 2 biggest housing associations in the UK. We'll continue supporting those withholding payment.…

Horrific that #Gambia is considering overturning a ban on female genital mutilation (FGM). Individual human rights should never be overridden on the grounds of religion, tradition or culture. theguardian.com/global-develop…
Religious privilege is undermining rights of UK citizens, @NatSecSoc tells UN committee UK allows religious discrimination in school admissions & requires of broadly Christian acts of worship in state schools Blasphemy remains illegal in N Ireland secularism.org.uk/news/2024/03/n…
The @NatSecSoc urged the UN committee to press for UK government action to ensure equal protection of all human rights. Dr. Alejandro Sanchez highlighted how 'exceptional treatment of religion' often undermines UK citizens' rights. secularism.org.uk/news/2024/03/n…
Our campaigns officer Alejandro Sanchez (@logomachist) was in Geneva this week briefing the UN Human Rights Committee. Religious privilege shouldn't be allowed to undermine the rights of UK citizens.
We're in #Geneva today, at the HQ of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, to brief the Committee on how religious privilege is undermining rights in education, healthcare and around free speech in the UK. #UNHCR #HRC55 secularism.org.uk/news/2024/02/p…
Being removed from my role as Survivor Advocate by @churchofengland for doing my job effectively, was wrong and impacted me and @SteveReevesUK personally. I am deeply thankful to the 337 General Synod Members, that voted in favour to apologise. linkedin.com/pulse/337-vote…

Charity regulators "assessing concerns" after @NatSecSoc draw attention to three recently-registered charities that have referred to witchcraft, black magic and exorcism practices. Charities are supposed to provide a public benefit. This stuff is harmful. civilsociety.co.uk/news/regulator…

Gotta love how the website says, without irony, "a growing number of Muslims are vulnerable to the deception of black magicians, fraudulent spiritual leaders, and sorcerers who exploit them for personal gain."

We’re deeply alarmed by reports that the government wants top open a new wave of #FaithSchools which select 100% of pupils based on religion. This would be obscene and segregate our children more than ever. 👇 secularism.org.uk/news/2024/04/n…
Lifting the 50% cap on faith school admissions would be obscene. Catholic bishops may want a new wave of religiously exclusive, segregated schools – all funded by taxpayers. But I doubt most voters do. secularism.org.uk/news/2024/04/n…
