Breaking news 🚨 We've beaten the government in the High Court over its UNLAWFUL CLIMATE PLAN.

Now we need a climate plan that meets UK climate targets and benefits people's lives. We’re proud to have brought this case to court, alongside ClientEarth and Good Law Project⚖️

If you're visiting the #PeakDistrict this bank holiday weekend please help to protect it.

We welcome Steve Reed's commitment to a land use framework to help tackle the pressures on our countryside. ✅

We want to see how Labour will square its new environmental pledges with its determination to develop on greenfield land. 👇
