TTIP is a treaty being negotiated in your name that will give multinationals more power than national governments. As the link below says if you dont know about it, its because youre not supposed to. Some of us have been campaigning. Yesterday, MPs voted to say they want power over what’s in TTIP. Tens of thousands of voters got in touch with their MPs asking them to do just that - and they won! It was a symbolic vote, and only a handful of MPs turned up. But now that MPs have said they think they should have a say on what’s in TTIP, ordinary people could have more power over the final deal. Why? Because if a real vote happens, we can put pressure on our MPs to do the right thing. It’s an election year, so they’re worrying about what their voters think. So - a step in the right direction! And that isn’t the only good news on TTIP this week. On Tuesday, the EU Commission was forced to admit that 97% of people who responded to a TTIP consultation were against the bit of the deal that could let private companies sue national governments. Wake up and smell the crap, people, youre sitting in it.
