A judge has been hearing submissions today at the Royal Courts of Justice in the appeal by Dr Sarah Benn of the decision by a Medical Practitioners Tribunal to suspend her for five months for ‘misconduct’ as a result of her peaceful climate activism.
This thread🧵sums up the submissions heard on day one, as lawyers acting for Dr Benn set out their grounds for her appeal, supported by @theBMA [1/]

BREAKING 🚨: 65 climate groups, backed by trade unions, call on @RachelReevesMP to STOP prioritising shareholder profits and FUND a just transition for North Sea workers and their communities.
We need a proper industrial strategy that puts workers + communities at its heart.
ALT Yellow and white text on a black background reading: "the chancellor must support energy workers. Climate groups and unions are calling for a £1.9 billion ring-fenced investment package for... well paid, unionised jobs in public and community-owned wind manufacturing. Upgrading our ports to be fit for the future. A training fund for current energy industry workers. Rachel Reeves: we need a publicly-owned energy system now!'

Are you an activist in the UK?
The changes last year to English protest law aimed to suppress protest and scare us away from effective protest methods, through fear of arrest.

Racist, anti-migrant, climate change denying, far-right parties are on the rise across Europe. The UK is no exception. Reform UK is holding it’s conference in Birmingham later this month. Everyone who cares about our planet & it’s peoples should come together to oppose them.

Writing letters, signing petitions, talking to politicians are all important in building a groundswell of support, but this takes years of campaigning & the world is staring down the double barrel of climate chaos and mass extinction.
