r (factortame ltd) v secretary of state for transport was a legal case about a company called Factortame Ltd. They wanted to be able to use boats within British waters, but the government said they could not.

In the end, the court decided that the government was wrong and that Factortame Ltd was allowed to do what they wanted. This decision showed that European law can be used in British courts and that the government cannot always make rules that go against it.
