1) PEACE AND PROGRESS

Peace & Progress: A Party for Human Rights

http://www.peaceandprogress.org/index.php

"We used to think that human rights were non-political. So they ought to be.
Half a century ago the Universal Declaration of Human Rights spoke for every
inhabitant of the earth, whatever their race, religion, class, sex or age. It
could not eradicate all the man-made differences between man and man, man and
woman, rich and poor. But it established what was common to rich and poor,
Christian, Jew, Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist or atheist, and what was due to
them as human beings. Their right to shelter, food, safety, education, justice,
life itself should not depend on where they were born, their class, their faith,
their gender. IN THE DISTRIBUTION AND RECEIPT OF HUMAN RIGHTS ALL SHOULD BE
EQUAL." -- From the manifesto:
