CAMPAIGNERS fighting a development in the Caribbean said to be linked to a controversial project in Scotland will have their case heard in the UK this week.
Their lawyers argue the Caribbean court was wrong in its ruling that the campaigners lacked standing to bring a claim against their government for approving the development. Antigua and Barbuda are party to the Escazú Agreement, an international treaty signed by 25 Latin American and Caribbean nations, which requires broad legal standing in environmental cases.Frank, one of the campaigners, said: “The decision to fight against the development of the private-jet airport on Barbuda was not taken lightly. But it had to be done.
“This goes against our laws as well as international treaties and expectations that are the norm in any modern society. We will not accept these abuses. We stand against the injustice." “John and Jackie are bravely standing against the short-term interests of the central government in Antigua and foreign luxury tourism developers, which endanger the fragile ecology of this low-lying island in times of a heightened global climate crisis.
