[Voiceover]: The phrase “rule of law” may sound boring, but it’s actually really important when it comes to protecting our rights and making sure we live in a fair society - and there’s nothing boring about that!

Put simply it means that everyone, including the government, is bound by the law. Nobody is above it. It means laws can’t be made in secret, without us knowing.

And it means that new laws should not criminalise things that have already happened. It’s the role of judges to apply the law, that includes making sure that those in power don’t breach our human rights.

For example, the police are not allowed to stop and search you without having reasonable grounds, and if they do you should be able to hold them to account under the rule of law.

Ultimately, when used properly, the rule of law can be a powerful tool to protect us against injustice.

It should ensure we are not treated unfairly or deprived of our rights for no reason, and it’s something we need to protect.

[Text on screen]: “The Rule of Law is crucial to every aspect of our lives. It allows us to lie how we wish, to act how we wish (within reason), to be who we wish and to be accountable to ourselves and others.”
