“If technology becomes the ultimate criterion, the human person risks being reduced to data, a cog in a machine or a commodity.” My summary of the Pope’s very good AI encyclical 👇 www.globaljustice.org.uk/blog/2026/06...

Heatwaves across the UK are intensifying thanks to climate breakdown. But gov has nothing in place to prepare. Workers shouldn’t bear the cost. We demand: 📢 A national maximum working temperature 📢 A heatwave furlough scheme 📢 A climate action plan heatstrike.uk #HeatStrike #TooHotToWork

Our Scotland Resists Big Tech conference in Edinburgh was a powerful day, with workshops on how to resist data centres, to talks on the role of Big Tech in the genocide in Gaza. Together we can build the resistance to Big Tech monopolies - from Scotland to the world ✊🏼

Keir Starmer has announced his departure as PM and Andy Burnham is looking highly likely to succeed him. We @anothereurope.bsky.social and @ukstoptrump.bsky.social have written this open letter on what change would mean for Britain’s role in the world 👇🏽 www.globaljustice.org.uk/news/what-ne...

An incredible few days of collective learning and activism at our youth summer school last week! We loved speaking, organizing and strategizing for the future together ✊🏽 Get involved in our youth network: www.globaljustice.org.uk/get-involved...

The government must introduce a complete ban on trade with illegal settlements

UN climate talks wrapped up in Bonn yesterday. Our side event with @caneurope.org CAN-LA @foeint.bsky.social threw light on corporate courts blocking climate action. Govt reps from Colombia, Australia and the UN Special Rapporteur on Climate Change called for states to work together to address ISDS

The government has just advised businesses not to trade with illegal Israeli settlements. But with no consequences for businesses that refuse to comply, this is a cop out. We need a complete ban on trade with illegal settlements, and sanctions targeting the illegal occupation. Share if you agree.

Absolutely brilliant first day of our youth summer school today. The next generation of activists 👇

There's a buzz in our office as our youth summer school kicks off today ✊🏽 Young people from across the country have gathered for three days of learning, creating and engaging to strengthen their skills in the fight for global justice!

Climate action should not come with threats of million-euro legal claims. At the Bonn climate talks, governments & experts discussed how ISDS system continues to delay & weaken the transition away from fossil fuels. The solution is clear: no new ISDS agreements, and cancelling existing ones.

Brilliant day of workshops from @globaljusticescot.bsky.social on the growing movement to stop datacentres and oppose Big Tech @globaljusticenow.bsky.social

The government has no clue how ISDS works. Which makes it criminal they’ve actually expanded this system. You don’t get to decide the compensation! The corporate lawyers do. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

NEW: £1 BILLION of our public money is at stake as a company threatens to challenge the UK’s nationalisation of British Steel. The corporate courts our government continues to insert into our trade deals allow this. This must be a wake up call to change course. www.reuters.com/world/uk/jin...

Across the country, the far-right are spreading hatred and division, threatening, intimidating and attacking people of colour. These are racist pogroms. We cannot afford to idly stand by 👇🏽

The UK is being sued for £300 million for halting the Cumbria coal mine, via a secretive tribunal which gives corporations special rights. Sign the petition: Call time on corporate courts. #StopISDS

British taxpayers could have to pay £300 MILLION to a company behind an aborted climate wrecking coalmine 🤬 Corporate courts are allowing corporations to hold us all to ransom. They are unjust, anti-democratic and must end. www.thetimes.com/uk/environme...

The government’s piecemeal approach to dealing with Israel’s state-backed dispossession and persecution of Palestinians is grossly insufficient. Banning all trade with Israel’s illegal settlements would be effective and has wide support. Why won’t it take action? www.reuters.com/world/uk/uk-...

Our legal battle against the UK Government over its concessions to Trump in the US-UK medicines deal, with @justtreatment.org, covered in @bmj.com 👇🏾 www.bmj.com/content/393/...

“Taxpayers should not be left footing the bill for something that almost certainly would never have been built.” Corporate courts are allowing corporations to sue us for hundreds of millions. Our climate policy is being held to ransom - and we need to fight back. www.thetimes.com/uk/environme...

We and @justtreatment.org are taking the UK Gov to court over its unlawful power grab over NHS drug price controls! But if we’re to see this case through, we need to raise more - and we have two weeks left to do it. Help us take this fight all the way. www.crowdjustice.com/case/stop-nh...

Thanks to ISDS, taxpayers face a £300m bill as coal investors sue over an aborted coal mine. That’s 6 times what the company invested. Our climate policy is being held to ransom by these toxic corporate courts 🧵 www.thetimes.com/uk/environme...

Support our legal challenge to Trump's attack on our NHS! We are taking on the government's pharma deal with Trump in the courts. www.crowdjustice.com/case/stop-nh...

The Gulf agreement repeats the Tory-era approach to trade deals that Labour criticised in opposition, geared towards a shiny press release over any real economic benefit for ordinary people. It locks in serious dangers to our ability to act on climate. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"We hope our legal challenge can be a small stepping stone to building a healthcare system in the interest of health, not corporate profit." Our director @nickdearden.bsky.social, and director of @justtreatment.org, Diarmaid McDonald for New Statesman 👇🏼 www.newstatesman.com/spotlight/he...

"ISDS in thousands of investment treaties allow foreign investors to sue governments for breaching treaty agreements. Government officials in Santa Marta say the measures can have a chilling effect on governments trying to stop fossil fuel investment." www.ft.com/content/b9a0...

Great coverage in @politico.com of our plans to take the UK Government to court over its rewriting of the law to weaken NHS drug-pricing rules to appease Trump. Our health must come before profit! www.politico.eu/article/lega...

Polite diplomacy has failed. We must press for substantial trade sanctions to stop Israel’s war crimes. Will you write to the UK government to demand trade sanctions on Israel now? act.globaljustice.org.uk/node/4333

Early this year Bristol endorsed the Fossil Fuel Treaty! They join cities across the UK, including Dundee, Cardiff, Manchester and London in calling for a just end to the fossil fuel era.

"The mere threat of being sued creates a chilling effect, where states are deterred from or delay their climate action." Our trade campaigner @cleodierickard.bsky.social spoke with @mongabay.com on the global fight against corporate courts (ISDS) 👇 news.mongabay.com/2026/05/foss...

Brilliant to see @theguardian.com highlight the climate activists, experts, and many developing countries who want an end to corporate courts (ISDS) 💥 Corporate courts hand corporations a loaded gun to challenge progressive policies. It's time to #EndISDS www.theguardian.com/environment/...

NEW: At Santa Marta, civil society groups, unions and academics spoke united about the need for a coordinated global exit from corporate courts. So it's worrying to see measures on addressing ISDS watered down in the co-hosts’ initial takeaways report. www.globaljustice.org.uk/news/campaig...

Thank you to everyone who came out to our conference, Resisting Big Tech Empires last weekend! Big tech’s power can feel overwhelming. But Saturday showed what’s possible when we come together: to understand it, challenge it, and start building alternatives.

The collective of NGOs gives a clear, united message to the governments meeting at the Santa Marta conference. We need an urgent exit from ISDS and real, meaningful action to address the climate emergency!

We were delighted to co‑organise Resisting #BigTech Empires with @globaljusticenow.bsky.social. A powerful day with activists, researchers and organisers pushing for a fairer digital economy. Grateful to help build the coalitions needed for real structural change.

Scenes from Santa Marta, Colombia as activists and campaigners take to the streets to call for an end to fossil fuels and the neo-colonial economic system that sustains them - and for governments around the world to take action now ✊🏽
