Wed 05 May 200970% in North back Bill of Rights, poll finds
SOME 70 per cent of respondents to a Northern Ireland opinion poll back a Bill of Rights, a United Nations human rights committee has been told.
Campaigners for such a Bill told the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in Geneva of the results of opinion polling which uncovered almost equal levels of support for a Bill by both Catholic and Protestant respondents. They hope the UN will indicate their backing in their examination of the UK government.
