‼️ Amnesty's new research exposes the anti-trans movement. They have a plan - first they're coming for trans rights and then for women's rights. We'll only defeat them by coming together.

Last Saturday, tens of thousands gathered in London in a powerful show of unity and solidarity as we commemorated 78 years since the Nakba – where over 800,000 Palestinians were displaced from their homes.

🚨⚽️ BREAKING: Pep Guardiola steps down as Manchester City's manager after 10 years. We want to thank him for using his platform to speak out against human rights abuses while working here in the UK.

Today, reports confirmed that plans for a major Met Police contract with Palantir were blocked after concerns over procurement, accountability and public trust. We’re being heard. Join a regional call to connect with activists near you 💛 amn.st/63327B88tIv

Food is a human right. It's not a commodity.

Today marks 50 years since the UK ratified the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. These rights shape our everyday lives. But 50 years later, these rights still are not fully protected in UK law. Illustrations by: Edith Ault

Executions in 2025 soared to the highest figure recorded by Amnesty International since 1981 – and a small, isolated group of states were responsible. A world without the death penalty is possible. And we won't stop fighting until we abolish it. Read on: amn.st/63321BBNjkF

A touch of class. #FaCupFinal #FACupWinners

Today, Holocaust survivor Stephen Kapos is at the Nakba Day demo in London as he has been for nearly all the demos against Israel's genocide for the last two years. Stephen attends with family & members of his group the ‘Holocaust Survivors & Descendants Against the Genocide in Gaza’.

Decisions and opinions by international courts have repeatedly condemned Israel for its multiple and egregious violations. Israel's impunity can no longer be tolerated, and people everywhere must act in accordance with their conscience and stand up for human rights.

Today's King's Speech must be a turning point. We need to create a society and social security system that ensures everyone has enough to live with dignity. The UK Government must urgently replace the social security regime with a system rooted in dignity, fairness and human rights.

While the government debates good leadership, too many people feel overlooked, too many people are struggling to afford the essentials, too many people are going without food.

Federico Escher, head of foreign news at Channel 4 News, gave this powerful speech at the Baftas when Channel 4 won the News Coverage award for "Israel-Iran: The Twelve Day War."

The documentary that the BBC refused to air - Gaza: Doctors Under Attack - won a Bafta last night. The documentary shows the targeting, detainment and torture of medics in Gaza by Israeli authorities. #Bafta #Baftas

Today marks 500 days of Dr Hussam Abu Safiya’s cruel arbitrary detention by Israeli authorities. He was arrested after approaching an Israeli tank that was storming Kamal Adwan Hospital - which at the time was the last functioning hospital in North Gaza & the hospital Dr Safiya is the director of.

The current noise and distraction surrounding @misanharriman.bsky.social’s questioning of recent media reporting is straight out of the authoritarian playbook.

“Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.” - George Orwell, 1984 Last night at the #AmnestyMediaAwards 2026, Adrian Lester delivered this powerful excerpt from 1984. Two plus two make four, and peaceful protest is a human right.

Thank you to Jen Brister for hosting this year's #AmnestyMediaAwards where we recognised the extraordinary courage of journalists who risk so much to expose human rights abuses.

Congratulations to Mark Daly, Jax Sinclair and Calum McKay of BBC Scotland for winning the Nations and Regions Amnesty Media Award for Disclosure: Kids on the Psychiatric Ward.

Living free from violence is a human right. The recent and significant increase in antisemitic attacks, including this week's horrific attack on two people in Golders Green, is deeply concerning. We stand in solidarity with Jewish communities who feel unsafe and fearful right now.

Together we can make sure next Thursday marks a turning point for Scotland. For too long, people in Scotland have been denied access to their everyday rights like housing, healthcare & education.

Civilians across the region need an enduring, sustained and comprehensive regional ceasefire. The fragile ceasefires between the United States and Iran, and between Israel and Lebanon, must be replaced by an enduring and comprehensive regional ceasefire. Read on: amn.st/63329BBOeF9

The Scottish elections on 7th May can mark a turning point. But only if we work together to demand a Human Rights Bill in the next Scottish Parliament.

DEADLINE: Midnight tonight ⌛️ You can choose Amnesty’s People's Human Rights Champion. As part of Amnesty's Media Awards, this award celebrates a UK public figure who uses their platform & voice to champion human rights – either across a broad range of issues or by focusing on a specific cause.

On this day, one year ago, the Supreme Court ruled that the meaning of ‘sex’ in the Equality Act corresponds to sex assigned at birth. The judgement severely restricted the scope of legal gender recognition and has not produced any improvement in women’s lives.

It's been 16 years of a government intent on ignoring human rights and dismantling the rule of law. On Sunday, the majority voted for change. Now, Hungarians can keep the momentum and hold the new government accountable, so that everyone's human rights are at the centre of all government policies.

Palantir’s tech has been linked to the Israeli military's ongoing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, raising serious human rights concerns. This Thursday, MPs will debate Palantir's NHS contract. Email your MP to say No Palantir in Our NHS: amn.st/63328B62zaO

1000 hours of not being able to contact your family. 1000 hours without news from the outside world. 1000 hours without access to essential information. 90 million people in Iran have now lived under digital darkness for 1000 hours. Authorities must immediately restore internet access.

With 4 million children living in poverty in the UK, lifting the two-child limit still doesn’t go far enough. The UK Government need to end all policies that are keeping children in poverty, such as the benefit cap and sanctions.

We’re demanding justice for Iranians. Attacks on civilians in Iran, whether by Iranian authorities or directed by authorities in Washington or Tel Aviv, must be stopped. The UK government must intensify diplomatic efforts to help prevent further military escalation and protect civilians.

On Trans Day of Visibility, we're celebrating Christine Goodwin & her historic victory at the European Court of Human Rights which led to the Gender Recognition Act 2004. Read about Christine's victory and what it meant for trans rights here👇🏽 amn.st/6003B6mBcS

On Saturday, half a million people came together not just to march against the far-right. But for a different type of society based on unity, respect and where we do what we did on the weekend: turn up to support each other. Thank you Imran Yusuf for telling us what Saturday's march meant to him.

Love trumps hate - every single day of the week. Thank you to the hundreds of Amnesty supporters who joined the historic demonstration against the far right. The estimated half a million people showed the power we have when we show up, together.

Together Alliance: every major union representing millions of workers Unite The Kingdom: key speaker is the world's richest man

We are so thankful to the family of Adrian and Celia Mitchell who have donated their library to our bookshop in Kentish Town. The two cultural colossuses have an incredible collection - including many first-edition books. www.camdennewjournal.co.uk/article/poet...

Our thoughts are with the Jewish community following the horrifying arson attack in Golders Green, where emergency vehicles serving the community were deliberately targeted. Such an attack - carried out against those who exist to save lives - is deeply shocking.

Outstanding collection donated to @amnestyuk.bsky.social bookshop. www.camdennewjournal.co.uk/article/poet...

The lead actor of ‘Voice of Hind Rajab’, Motaz Malhees, was denied the chance to attend the #Oscars because he’s Palestinian, as per Donald Trump's travel ban. Policies like this fuel racism & violate intl human rights law. As Malhees said, “You can block a passport. You cannot block a voice.”

On Saturday 28 March, we’re coming together to march against the far right – as part of the Together Alliance. There will be an Amnesty International UK group (bloc) there. Find out more here 👇🏽 amn.st/63323B6KDEz

Millions at risk as Israel, US, and Iran unlawfully target energy infrastructure. International humanitarian law is clear: military actions must not cause disproportionate harm to civilians or damage civilian objects. Read on: amn.st/63327B6JoOc

Amnesty UK has partnered with our long-term Ambassadors Kaiser Chiefs on their UK tour to raise funds & awareness of Amnesty’s campaign to protect the right to protest. We need your help to stop the crackdown on protests in the UK & to ensure everyone gets the freedom to stand up for their rights.

This International Women’s Day, we’re celebrating five women advancing human rights. From tackling poverty to defending Palestinian rights, these women are fighting injustice locally and globally. 🧵1/7

Violence against women and girls is a human rights crisis. But far-right actors are weaponising it to spread racism, Islamophobia and division. This is failing survivors while inflaming hate. Read the full briefing: amn.st/63326hhSJg
