🗣'Northern Ireland’s ghost government, meanwhile, stands in the shadows unable to do a thing about it. I’m raging and you should be too.'
And I totally agree with Hilary Benn, all the wildlife, environmental charities and Northern Ireland’s former top civil servant in their alarm about the danger the Retained EU Bill poses to our future health and that of our natural environment.
Already we have an environmental department, whose own reports show how they are failing us on an annual basis. It heard recently that the EU won’t be taking any more cases against authorities in Northern Ireland when they’ve failed to follow the law and that in itself is worrying. But this Bill also means, Parliament won’t even get a say on what laws are ditched.
In truth, this Bill risks over 1,000 pieces of legislation that protect us, our health, our wellbeing and the nature underpins it all. The Scottish Government has strongly opposed the Bill, calling it a “deregulatory race to the bottom” and the Welsh Government has labelled it a “power grab”. Mammals on that list include brown long-eared bats, humpback whales, otters, the common seal and the Irish hare and every one of them could do with people keeping an eye out for their wellbeing.
