5 years since Russia illegally annexed Crimea, worrying reports of human rights violations & abuses from Crimea & non-govt controlled Donetsk & Luhansk continue, incl torture & arbitrary detention. We call for OHCHR access & release of political prisoners: bit.ly/2JoE4OV

Today the UK co-sponsored a side event at #HRC40 on the human rights situation in #Venezuela.
The US-organised event highlights how the Maduro regime clings to power through the use of torture, arbitrary detention, closure of independent media, & bans on political activity pic.twitter.com/C0r7FJv73t

At today’s #HRC40, I expressed the UK’s concern that recent elections in the DRC took place in a restricted democratic space.
Journalists continue to be intimidated & harassed and following the elections, internet access was shut down for a lengthy period: bit.ly/2UKXsXQ pic.twitter.com/ou3IU0LFjF

Globally, press freedom is seriously under attack. 79 journalists were killed in 2018 & many continue to be imprisoned, simply for doing their job. The UK is committed to end impunity for crimes against journalists, which is why we have co-sponsored today’s event at #HRC40 pic.twitter.com/ztypOPPRye

Great news that the UK has appointed Dr Michael Brady, of the @THTorguk & @KingsCollegeNHS, as National Adviser for LGBT Health.
The new role will increase NHS staff awareness of LGBT issues & improve mental/physical health services for LGBT patients 🏳️🌈 bit.ly/2W6Wh5d
