MODERATORS
Everyone hates Clivey boi. I get it. But, did we breach a trade rule?
I'm pretty sure the government has immunity from being sued for law changes.
Now if they had fucked up in some way, like failed to give you something you were entitled to, THEN you could sue them.
But for changing the export laws or a trade deal?
You'd need to establish a "right to proceed" with the High Court.
And the High Court is going to tell Clive to pound sand.
