Abstract: A Sharing De-Brutalisation Act of Parliament might better ensure equality under the law, particularly for those with mental ill-health, by discouraging the causing of mental health damage to avoid legal action, reducing the law’s brutal attritional adversarial effects, enhancing law’s ability to provide effective remedy and preventing people feeling ‘compelled’ to ‘rebellion’ by a sense of not being ‘protected by the rule of law’ as the UNDHR warns. Government knows the law is inaccessible even to the mentally resilient, with gov.uk warning people it is ‘complex, expensive and time-consuming’ to go to court and the Victims’ Commissioner reporting that people are ‘retraumatised’ by legal processes. Introducing an act of parliament that requires laws and their means of implementation to consider any brutalising effects therein and to provide for shared ways to de-brutalise any such might improve delivery of the World Economic Forum’s ‘security’ through ‘consensus’ on dealing with ‘problems’ within a UNDHR ‘common standard’ to prevent ‘barbarous acts’ to safeguard authentic equality in diversity, inclusivity in protection and the re-booting of constructive activity when it is compromised by brutal functioning or by any brutality in what is permitted, forbidden, obliged or not obliged by law.
