Three people claim government is breaching right to life and family life under Human Rights Act
Three young people are taking legal action against the prime minister, accusing him of breaching his legal obligations to take “practical and effective measures” to tackle the climate crisis.
In a high court hearing in London on Thursday, Adetola Onamade, 24, Jerry Amokwandoh, 22, and Marina Tricks, 20, claimed the government is breaching their rights under the Human Rights Act to life and to family life by failing to do what is necessary to avert environmental disaster.
