"Making sure to have the final word, Commissioner Johansson stated that the “core of this proposal is protection of children”, and seemed to criticise MEPs for not focusing on that point. Yet several child rights and child protection experts, as well as survivors of CSA, have pointed out the risk that the proposal could actually achieve the opposite effect.

There has been a well-documented and long-standing refusal by DG HOME’s to engage substantively with concerns that the proposal is disproportionate and based on a fundamental misunderstanding of technology, even attacking academics who pointed to the deep technological flaws.

We reiterate that the complex issue of CSA requires a nuanced and whole-of-society approach, whereas mass surveillance will make all of us less safe – including the children that this law is supposed to protect."—@edri >

Good Law Project: Remove the government’s adviser on protest

Lord Walney advises the government on #protest but his conflicts of interest warrant his removal.

Lord Walney was appointed to advise the government on political violence and disruption. His report urged the government to focus their attention on those campaigning on the #climate crisis and protesting for Palestine.

But whilst making these recommendations, Walney was being paid by lobbying organisations whose clients include #oil and #gas companies and those selling #weapons to #Israel.

If Labour is serious about cleaning up politics, it must remove Walney urgently and investigate him for conflicts of interest.

Please sign the petition and share.

Protest adviser must be removed for conflicts of interest

Good Law Project have made an official complaint about ‘independent’ #protest adviser, Lord Walney, and submitted a dossier of evidence of his conflicts of interest. They say it’s time for #Labour to clean up standards in political life.

He focused a report on non-violent groups working on issues around Palestine and the climate crisis, despite holding paid positions furthering the interests of #arms manufacturers and #FossilFuels.
