Las cláusulas de arbitramento de los Tratados de Inversión Extranjera son leoninas! Todas las demandas las ganan las transnacionales y Colombia pierde millones de dólares en tribunales privados sin garantías procesales. Hoy he planteado en el Parlamento Británico (con miembros

Great to be part of this important discussion on the need to move away from ISDS in the Colombia-UK Bilateral Treaty. It is a crucial time to be part of the growing international movement against ISDS.

NEW: Ahead of the UK’s critical minerals strategy, we’re jointly calling for the gov to address the risks of mineral extraction. The green transition cannot be built on the exploitation of poorer countries by unaccountable corporations! Read here: tjm.org.uk/wp-content/upl…

“The green transition can’t be built on exploitation.” Together with 16 other civil society org, we urge the UK to rethink its approach to critical minerals. Important piece by Damien Gayle 👇 theguardian.com/business/2025/…

Big Pharma is using Trump’s tariff threat to hold Europe to ransom. Our health should not be in the hands of these profiteers. We need a better way of making medicines. Pleased to be in Politico with Peter Maybarduk for The People's Medicines Alliance 👇 politico.eu/article/pharma…

Great piece by Alexander Horne making the case for proper parliamentary scrutiny of trade deals. MPs are being sidelined on major deals with the US, India, and the EU. Starmer's approach raises real concerns about transparency. Parliament deserves a say. spectator.co.uk/article/parlia…

The government has sent a representative with appalling views on the genocide to deepen our cooperation. This is complicity, pure and simple. David Lammy has misled parliament and the public, and it is time for him to consider his position. theguardian.com/politics/2025/…

The UK should not sign new trade deals with countries that abuse human rights. The signature of a values-free UK-GCC trade agreement would signal that human rights, workers' rights and climate protections continue to be disregarded in UK trade policy. theguardian.com/politics/2025/…

"So have the Govt done a really regrettable U-turn on human rights and trade, or has the scenario in the Gulf improved so much that they do not think it warranted?" The Govt yesterday failed to confirm that a GCC trade deal would contain binding human rights provisions.

The UK’s new trade strategy makes big promises, but fails to back them with binding commitments. “Without clear conditions and safeguards that uphold rights... these promises risk remaining purely rhetorical.” Thomas Wills reuters.com/world/uk/brita…
