The UK is trying to sell its democracy for a tiny economic boost, by signing up to the Trance-Pacific Partnership. This is a business-supremacy treaty that contains an ISDS clause that allows businesses to demand "compensation" over any laws or policies that arguably cause the to have lower profits than they might have had. The article reports that the economic boost is likely to be even tinier than was previously forecast, but that side issue is nothing compared to the suffering and injustice that handing foreign businesses increased power over the country will cause. When such clauses block the measures needed to cut down greenhouse emissions, as in the case of the Energy Charter Treaty, they are likely to cause megadeaths or even gigadeaths. A war could easily be less deadly than obeying the treaty, so threatening war against any countries that stand in the way of canceling the treaty could be the moral choice.
