A single voice in the Senate warned that when accusation becomes the weapon, proof becomes optional.
She stood while others stayed silent.
She named the method.
She understood the cost.Some warnings don’t fade quietly.

New guidance from @TheLawSociety
Obviously welcome that it vindicates our #DeclarationofConscience, see tweet below
But still raises obvious moral objection: how can it be right to condone actions by solicitors who choose to profit from their clients causing mass loss of life?
Vital new guidance from @TheLawSociety, which vindicates Lawyer Declaration of Conscience (ie solicitors can choose to decline instructions inconsistent with 1.5˚C).
But implication is they may also choose to breach 1.5˚C, ie to profit from mass loss of life.
Is that really ok?
Timely guidance from @TheLawSociety confirming that law firms can refuse to act for polluters if it inhibits progress toward net zero or conflicts with firm’s ‘values’ on climate change.
Time to adhere to #DeclarationOfConscience

Important THREAD!
A piece from one of the most respected of all British legal figures, Geoffrey Bindman KC, and commentary by @CyberSobiecki a leading signatory of @lawyersareresp #DeclarationofConscience
Quite something indeed, although those that do care are taking a stand and acting out of our conscience to avoid such catastrophe.

Judicial persecution of climate protesters descends into farce. On Tuesday, Trudi Warner will be tried for contempt for silently holding this sign on a public highway outside court. Her trial will be at Old Bailey, which has a marble plaque in almost the same terms as her placard
#LawyersAreResponsible have signed a #DeclarationOfConscience to withdraw their legal services from (1) new fossil fuel projects; and, (2) criminal or civil action against peaceful climate protesters.(https://t.co/6RezOSh1Pd) @LawyersAreResp @paulpowlesland
