They will drag their heals and throw hissy fits first, but eventually something will be done.

I wish I had your confidence!
If they dig their heels in, would a judicial review be the most appropriate next step? I guess the other possibility would be something from the EU - but we all know how long that might take.
I would have thought that we should be aiming to get an investigation under way before the BT trials are due to start. Would that then give an opportunity for an injunction suspending the trials until the legality had been established?
If the authorities get a feel for how far this campaign is prepared to go, would it not increase the pressure on them to instigate an investigation?
