UK ministers ‘misled public’ when scrapping air quality regulations https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/dec/06/revealed-uk-ministers-misled-public-when-scrapping-air-quality-regulations?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
How else are we supposed to get to the sunny uplands of those dark satanic mills with air quality regs in the way? The Smog of productivity! Brexit benefits!
Oh - similar happening with water quality management regs too. EIP weakens UK posture on both.

So today, Sunak's excuse for a Government continues Rees Mogg's #Brexit bonfire of EU regulations. Government amendments actively seek to prevent preservation of at least current level of environmental protection; & prevent enhanced Parliamentary scrutiny. Shameful #REULBill

My full speech from yesterday's #REULBill debate. The Scottish Parliament has refused consent on this Bill, and yet it's set to sail through regardless. Neatly sums up the dysfunction of this undemocratic Union.

RT @ChirpyChet: Brexit: list of 600 EU laws to be scrapped is published
Govt reduces number of environmental laws to cut from 1,700 to 341
Campaigners will be scrutinising the list for loopholes with the help of environmental & workers’ unions

Stonking defeat for the government. Peers insert parliamentary scrutiny (joint committee of both Houses) into revocation process.
#democracy - it would be a good idea

Well, thank god for that. It's an absolute nightmare trying to advise clients when you've zero idea whether multiple laws are going to be repealed for no good reason a few months down the line
"Ministers have begun a full-scale retreat over post-#Brexit plans to ditch thousands of EU laws by the end of this year, after Tory peers warned they would join a mass cross-party revolt in the House of Lords."
WILL THE RETAINED EU LAW BILL UNDERMINE SUNAK'S WINDSOR
In its current form the Retained #EU Law Bill is incompatible with the Windsor Framework. Rishi Sunak should make big changes to the REUL bill or scrap it altogether. Anton Spisak #REUL #REULBILL
