🎉Reasons to be cheerful - the new government has decided to withdraw its legal defence of the Cumbria coal mine and do something more useful instead. On Tuesday, South Lakes Action, Friends of the Earth and Leigh Day will appear in the High Court to present their case on why the new mine, which flies in the face of the UK's net zero comittments, should be abandoned. Now it's over to the judiciary to determine the legal situation but, without a defence, it seems likely that the scheme will be overturned. 🤞🤞Keeping everything crossed for a common sense outcome next week. #environmentaljustice #netzero #carbonemissions #coal #fossilfuels #climateaction
Breaking 🚨 The government has withdrawn its defence of the Whitehaven coalmine in Cumbria 🙌 The government has admitted the controversial new coal mine was permitted unlawfully following the historic Horse Hill Supreme Court ruling last month which we helped win 🎉 They'll no longer be defending the mine when Friends of the Earth and South Lakes Action on Climate Change challenge its approval in court on 16 July. Check out the following link to find out more about the court case and why it's still going ahead 👀 https://lnkd.in/e8JuBiws
