ARTICLE 19 Law and Policy
@article19law.bsky.social
Defending freedom of expression and information through legal & policy reforms. Everywhere
In the House of Commons event, ARTICLE 19 supports the #JimmyLaiBill because it protects UK journalists from arbitrary detention abroad by ensuring consular access. The UK must adopt it to defend media freedom, protect journalists, and stand against transnational repression. #FreePress #HumanRights

80 years ago, the end of WWII in Europe marked a turning point for freedom and #HumanRights. But the struggle for these values, including #freespeech, continues.

Today, we remember those who challenged oppression and fought for a world where voices aren’t silenced by fear.

AI surveillance is expanding fast with little accountability.

On #WorldPressFreedomDay, we demand a ban on mass biometric surveillance, transparency, and #ArtificialIntelligence that protects #HumanRights, #freespeech, #FreeMedia, and #democracy.

Governments and tech companies must act now.

Today it's 7 years since journalist Ján Kuciak and his fiancée, Martina Kušnírová were murdered. Hitmen are behind bars. But the alleged mastermind is free, and those linked to this crime are back in power!

Justice delayed is justice denied!

Never forget!

Remembering Jan Palach on anniversary of his death. 56 years ago, he set himself on fire to protest the Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia, awakening a nation to fight for #freedom. His act was a powerful call against #censorship and apathy. His legacy lives on as a symbol of resistance. #JanPalach

Deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Helen Darbishire today.

For 10 years at ARTICLE 19, she championed #righttoknow and inspired all who knew her. Her visionary leadership and commitment transformed our community.

Thank you, Helen, for your light and dedication!

You will always be in our 💔
