🤝 We’re delighted to be supporting @ELF_Law’s intervention in a landmark case about whether water companies can be held legally accountable for sewage dumping.
The appeal will be heard on 6 and 7 March by the Supreme Court sitting in Manchester.

In 2018, United Utilities brought a legal claim seeking clarification that it could not be sued for the alarming amount of sewage it has discharged into the Manchester Ship Canal.
The High Court ruled that the water firm could not be subject to private legal action over this.

We’ve previously written about how this decision closed off legal challenges by private individuals and businesses impacted by sewage dumping into our waterways.

So, last year, we intervened in an appeal by the Manchester Ship Canal Company (MSCC) to try and overturn the High Court’s decision. But the Court of Appeal, too, sided with United Utilities.

The Supreme Court has now agreed to hear MSCC’s appeal. And MSCC liked our legal arguments and asked us to release our Counsel team so they could act for MSCC – and we agreed.

⚖️ What’s important to us is that the best arguments are put forward. This case will have significant ramifications for how we can hold water companies to account.

@ELF_Law has been given permission by the Supreme Court to intervene, after we supported its application.

It wouldn't be hard for Sunak or his old hedge fund pals at Theleme to issue a clear and simple denial. Why won't they? goodlawproject.org/sunak-lin…

What if young people didn't have to wait until things got worse before they got help? What if we had a system that, instead of intervening at crisis point, provided support when problems first started? #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek
