Civil law governs disputes between individuals or organizations, aiming to resolve issues like contracts, property, and family matters through compensation or court orders. Tort law is a branch of civil law that deals specifically with wrongful acts, such as negligence or defamation, where one party causes harm to another, and the injured party can seek damages.
The Disability Discrimination Act 1995 has been replaced by the Equality Act 2010, but its spirit lives on. The Equality Act not only carried forward the protections of the DDA but also expanded them, creating a more comprehensive framework for tackling discrimination. For disabled people, this means their rights are now protected under a single, stronger piece of legislation, but ensuring those rights are respected still requires continued advocacy, awareness, and enforcement.
Learn what “staying safe” really means and how to protect yourself from harassment, hate crime, racism, stalking, bullying, domestic violence, sexual assault, honour killings, and emotional distress. Know your rights and take steps to protect your wellbeing.
The UK government’s move to abolish the Human Rights Act and potentially leave the ECHR could leave citizens with no enforceable rights. What would this mean for the public, migrants, and democracy?
What society often forgets is that identity is not always visible on the surface. Just as people with hidden disabilities may struggle with how the world perceives them, transgender women face challenges when their lived reality does not match societal expectations. Respect, empathy, and evidence-based law are essential if society is to move beyond conflict and towards coexistence.
Gum disease, or periodontal disease, typically begins with gingivitis, which is inflammation of the gums caused by plaque buildup. Signs include red, swollen, or bleeding gums. The good news? In its early stage, gingivitis is fully reversible with proper oral care and professional cleaning.
However, if untreated, gingivitis can progress to periodontitis, an advanced and irreversible condition. This stage involves deep pockets forming between teeth and gums, leading to bone and tissue loss, and eventually, potential tooth loss.
Claimants are not inferior. They are individuals navigating hardship through no fault of their own. The people who work within the DWP and Universal Credit should be trained and reminded that respect is non-negotiable. Every human being deserves to be treated with dignity, especially when they’re asking for help, not handouts.
The current model of care in General Practice and community healthcare needs urgent reform. The focus should be on maximising efficiency, empowering pharmacies, and most importantly, respecting the patient’s time. As closures increase and inefficiencies pile up, it is only a matter of time before more patients fall through the cracks, unless meaningful action is taken now.
The prevalence of child poverty is not an accident; it is a consequence of policies, priorities, and political inertia. When the government subsidises steak dinners in Westminster while a child in the UK skips meals, something is deeply broken. If deprivation becomes acceptable, we risk losing the very soul of our society. It’s time for bold, compassionate leadership that puts children first, not after debates, not after budgets, but now.
Foreign nationals (Legal) are a vital part of British society; they work in our hospitals, build our infrastructure, teach in our schools, and contribute to the economy. A fair welfare and healthcare system should recognise their contributions while safeguarding public resources. Basing access on contributions, coupled with compassionate exceptions for those in genuine need, strikes the right balance.
