Another power grab

[gant]

Apparently the ECHR have made it illegal to form a government if they don't support climate change.
It seems that countries have to protect themselves against the enemy (in this case climate change) or cannot rule.
Which inevitably that means that any party which doesn't support climate change is wasting it's time entering an election in a vain hope to win it.

Explain what you mean by power grab and by whom exactly?

Or just troll along like you usually do.

On Tuesday, Europe’s top human rights court ruled that Switzerland's failure to act on climate change was a human rights violation.

The case was brought to the European Court of Human Rights by KlimaSeniorinnen (Swiss Elders for Climate Protection), a group of 2,000 Swiss women all over the age of 64. They argued that they were particularly affected, as older women are most vulnerable to extreme heat which is becoming increasingly common.

The court ruled 16-1 in favour of KlimaSeniorinnen but two other cases were thrown out - one from a French mayor and the other from six Portuguese young people.

Experts are saying it could be one of the most impactful rulings on climate change and human rights ever made. Despite mixed results, this trio of cases could serve as a “blueprint” for others looking to hold their government accountable for inaction.

Hilarious nonsense

Let’s see what new laws Gant thinks ECHR has put in place to make it illegal

I think he has put 2 and 2 together and got 5.

But his explanation will help.

You won't get one. Like the Daily Wail, he relies on headlines to get the morons excited. Expect several pages of irrelevant waffle.

I'm expecting nothing but waffle and gut feelings. As usual from him

Obviously too much for the hard of thinking no wonder we get the governments we deserve.
Time for an Angela squabble.

You still haven't explained your opening post title, boyo. Give us a bone at least and then comment.

I don't think that's what it means.

“The Swiss ruling sets a crucial legally binding precedent serving as a blueprint for how to successfully sue your own government over climate failures,” says Ruth Delbaere, legal campaigns director for activism network Avaaz.

Do you think our government will hasten our departure from the ECHR as they drag their heals over implementing a 'Green Deal' for climate change action, such as cutting emissions and a wider rollout of EVs?
