The Great British PAC has hailed a series of victories and launched new high-profile campaigns, declaring it is “reshaping the landscape” of British politics just seven months after its formation.
In a message to supporters, CEO Claire Bullivant said: “Patriots are uniting. Communities are rising. And it is inspiring to witness. While others hold placards and pontificate, the Great British PAC is in the trenches… law by law, case by case, county by county.”
Challenging the Intelligence Services’ Race Ban
One of the PAC’s most significant moves in recent weeks is a planned legal case against MI5, MI6 and GCHQ. The intelligence agencies launched taxpayer-funded internship programmes for 2026 which excluded white British students from applying.
PAC’s Young People’s Director, Sophie Corcoran, is leading the legal challenge, working with barrister James Tumbridge and a Cambridge University claimant. The organisation argues the policy is discriminatory and unlawful under the Equality Act 2010.
“I have watched brilliant friends denied jobs simply because they were white,” Corcoran said. “Others, despite top marks, have been turned away from universities in favour of candidates who did not even meet the minimum requirements. How can it be just that a gifted young person is excluded because of the colour of their skin?”
“This is not diversity. This is apartheid in a suit and tie,” Bullivant added. “With public support, this case will not only overturn injustice but set a precedent across the public sector.”
The PAC has launched an appeal to raise £20,000 to support the claimant in bringing the case forward.
Fighting the Chagos Islands Deal
The PAC has also played a leading role in opposing the Government’s plan to hand over the Chagos Archipelago to Mauritius. A Judicial Review is due on the matter when the High Court reopens in October.
In the meantime, the PAC coordinated a letter to former US President Donald Trump, signed by over 40 MPs, peers and security experts, warning the transfer could undermine the Diego Garcia base, a cornerstone of US and UK defence in the Indian Ocean.
The letter, backed by Sir Iain Duncan Smith and Margaret Thatcher’s former aide Dr Nile Gardiner, argues that placing the territory under Mauritius would create legal ambiguity over US nuclear operations and invite challenges from China, Russia and international bodies.
Holding Organisations to Account
The PAC’s grassroots “email warriors” also scored a victory when they secured a formal apology from the British Wheelchair Basketball team. The team had turned their backs during Israel’s national anthem before a match in Cologne last month, prompting hundreds of PAC supporters to write in protest.
Bullivant praised the campaign: “People power works. Bravo, email warriors!”
Other initiatives include private prosecutions against activists, campaigns to hold the British Museum accountable over the Elgin Marbles, and work with MPs resisting Labour’s proposed Islamophobia definition.
Expanding Influence
The PAC now boasts over 50 county and regional directors, a cross-party advisory board, and a legal team that includes two King’s Counsel. With an expanding pipeline of cases and campaigns, the group insists it is delivering results where others merely talk.
“While other groups scream into the void, we build cases. We fund actions. We win battles,” Bullivant said. “The mountains are moving — and we are the avalanche.”
The PAC is calling for more supporters to join and fund its campaigns through its website. Bullivant concluded: “The United Kingdom will not be saved by the complacent; it will be saved by the courageous.”
