York is to become the first Human Rights City in the UK, meaning that businesses, residents and organisations, including the council and the police, will make reference to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in day-to-day activities and policies. " The official declaration will be made by the city’s mayor on 24 April. “London has a proud history as one of the world’s most tolerant cities – but we are now at risk from those who seek to divide us,” said Sadiq Khan, London’s mayor.
