There are other threads about this JR so wasn't sure which one to add it to, ie is there going to a thread for those following the case tomorrow?

But thought this round up could be useful for some.

ill be watching, but unfortunately whilst I do something else, and I don't know if anyone is tweeting it. ill have a quick look.

From 10am we will be live tweeting the Scottish Govt's petition for Judicial Review of the UK Govt's order under section 35 of the Scotland Act 1998 to prohibit the royal assent of the GRR (Scotland) Bill 2023. The petitioner (Scot Govt) will be speaking today.

im sure the woman talking is trying to lull everyone to sleep. the tone is so sleep inducing!

Good point 🤞
