The case of a planned Cumbrian coalmine shows how governments around the world are being threatened by litigation in shadowy offshore courtsHow do you reckon our political system works? Perhaps something like this. We elect MPs. They vote on bills. If a majority is achieved, the bills becomes law. The law is upheld by the courts. End of story. Well, that’s how it used to work.

They are open only to corporations based overseas.George Monbiot is a Guardian columnist Continue reading...
