EECC and objectors rights: Judicial Review, London. Karen Churchill and Neil McDougall assert that the Government failed to enact the public health protection provisions within the European Electronic Communications Code in the EECC Directive (EU) 2018/1972, when it was transposed into UK Law in December 2020, and that local authorities need to be equipped to undertake risk reconciliation.

Currently, Government policy effectively prevents the local authorities from assessing the health and environmental impacts of masts and small cells.

The initial application for Judicial Review has been dismissed, so permission is now being sought to appeal the dismissal. The defendants are claiming that Aarhus (support for environmental issues) cost capping does not apply; the Government are arguing the EECC’s focus does not concern environmental isues. The initial costs of £36,000+ are being firmly contested as clearly the case primarily concerns  environmental and health impact provisions. Your support to help secure the case proceeding is vital as this opportunity to restore our right to partake in Planning with regard to protecting ourselves from risk and known harms.

Please support the case via the gofundme page as they need to cover their costs to continue with this vital challenge.


Cheltenham case: Judicial Review, High Court Cardiff. Steven Thomas argued 2 grounds against the council concerning a mast that was approved when it is 17m and 100m from residences, which also housed vulnerable groups. A legal win for a mast objector in Cheltenham, explains the hearing. Steven is lodging an appeal against the grounds ignored or in his view incorrectly dealt with.

Meanwhile do keep objecting to mast applications, see below.

As the market demand for this new ‘fast and effective’ communication technology is expected to expand exponentially in the near future, we face a very realistic question: “Where are we going to generate all of this energy simply to transport and store data?” 5G and the fast connectivity technologies are promoted as more efficient and energy saving. But how environmentally friendly will this be with exponentially increasing and widespread use?

Schools start to ban smart phones. Pupils at a preparatory school in the high-end borough of Kensington and Chelsea in London will give students as young as 10 a basic Nokia phone which can only receive texts and calls, amid the latest clampdown on smartphones. Eton College is also doing the same, along with about 11% of other schools. The reasons of course are not to do with the microwave radiation, but discipline and mental health, but it is a good step, that can invite further questioning. “We already have overwhelming evidence that smartphones fundamentally rewire every mental, physical, social and emotional aspect of children’s lives” The Spectator.
