Bill Cash demands judicial review on Lisbon Treaty at High Court (and is refused)

On 17 June 2008, Bill Cash sought a judicial review in the (UK) High Court to ensure that the Lisbon Treaty should not be ratified, given David Miliband’s decision to continue the ratification of the Treaty in the UK (statement on 16th June) after the ‘No’ outcome of the Irish referendum vote
(on 13th June). Bill Cash later heard from Mr Justice Collins that permission had been refused. Printed in this article is the original detailed statement of grounds, the Order by the Honourable Mr Justice Collins, and Bill Cash’s view.
