With the greatest of respect DMcG, you are failing to understand TTIP. Healthcare has been the stalking horse in this as NHS spending is increasingly open to competition despite commissioning decisions being slowly taken out of political control. (as chair if a health authority I was appointed to proxy through the board the will of Parliament and ministers) which has led to huge debate amongst MPs regarding the impact of TTIP on the £106 billion of NHS care that could be open to challenge.

Nobody is thinking of fracking. They are thinking of the threat to major issues. To date, judicial reviews are the nearest you can get to challenging democratic decisions by challenging the process.

Perhaps before saying judicial reviews are irrelevant, you might ask somebody to tell you how the affair you refer to is all about swapping judicial reviews for litigation.
