Hi John,
I’m writing to let you know about an important opportunity coming up for us to spotlight the Colombian government’s call to end corporate courts in its investment deal with the UK.

With organisations campaigning alongside us and the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Human Rights, we've secured an event in parliament about the UK-Colombia treaty’s impact on human rights, peacebuilding and climate action with speakers representing the Colombian government, and legal experts, trade unions and civil society.

Can you ask your MP to attend?

We’ve been working hard with Colombian partners to shore up their government’s ambition to challenge the investment treaty, which at this moment UK companies are weaponising to overturn environmental policies. Now we must put pressure on the UK side to ensure our ministers come to the table.

Our government will be invited to give a ministerial response, so getting as many MPs as possible in the room to learn of the shocking impacts of corporate courts on Colombia is critical for showing eyes are on their next steps.

We’ve already heard Colombia is a “special case”, due to the UK’s human rights commitments as United Nations Security Council penholder for the Colombian peace process. This event will show MPs exactly the actions needed to live up to this responsibility. Can you help us in this critical next step in the campaign and email your MP about the event?

In the current political moment, the UK’s trading relationships are centre stage. A potential trade deal with the US is putting at stake our ability to regulate Big Tech, protect the NHS and farmers’ livelihoods.

But we must also keep exposing how our existing deals allow corporations to hold global south countries to ransom, putting their ability to fight poverty and protect the environment at risk, especially as the same countries are on the sharp end of Trump’s tariff war.

Thank you for supporting the ongoing battle against corporate courts.

In solidarity,
Cleodie Rickard,
