If you can afford a donation, perhaps you'd like to support them too. Take a look at their website and you'll see the work they're doing. To be honest, at the moment, they're a far more effective opposition to the shithouses in government than Labour, by a long chalk. https://goodlawproject.org/ They're taking the Tories to the High Court and winning.Good Law Project
Net Zero: We’re going to Court
Dear Paul,
We have good news in our legal challenge against the Government’s dangerously threadbare Net Zero strategy: we have been given permission to bring judicial review proceedings on all of our grounds.
We launched our case a month ago to force the Government to strengthen the Net Zero strategy. Currently, the commitment is paper-thin. It’s strong on rhetoric, but lacking any real pathway to ensure we meet the promise made by Parliament to our children that we will reduce greenhouse gases to Net Zero by 2050. The Government isn’t measuring the emissions reductions each initiative is meant to achieve and has refused to release the documents that set out these calculations.
We launched this case in the High Court alongside our friends at ClientEarth and Friends of the Earth. The High Court has decided that all three cases will be heard together and there is no reservation about anyone’s legal ‘standing’.
We are delighted that the High Court has, by giving permission to bring a judicial review, acknowledged how important it is that the Net Zero commitment in the Climate Change Act has real meaning. A report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change earlier this week said that humans and nature are already being pushed beyond their abilities to adapt. And there is only a brief window of time left to avoid the very worst
The time to act is now.
We will let you know when a court date is set.
Thank you,
Jo Maugham - Good Law Project

Climate change.
I'm a financial supporter and admirer of the Good Law Project, and consequently, I'm on their mailing list. Their gig is holding the government to account, and lately, it's been all about the pandemic, overspending our money, and giving it to their mates with a VIP lane for contracts. However, this just popped up and I know Stu will be interested, so...

Re: Climate change.
Thanks for posting that Paul. It's good to see somebody is taking the subject seriously (GLP). This hand waving, good for nothing government needs a kick up the arse.
