An invitation to take the #noTTIP Train to Brussels

An invitation to take the #noTTIP Train to Brussels

Date: 5 December 2014

The much delayed next round of TTIP negotiations is now set for the first week in February. Campaigners from across the EU are holding their own meeting to discuss strategy and a plan for the next stage in the campaign, having recently secured one million signatures on the self-organised European Citizens’ Initiative petition.

We thought it would be an idea to try to take a group of people over to raise their voices against this insidious deal which attacks democracy and costs jobs and livelihoods.

So, we’re block booking seats on Eurostar, arranging accommodation, a walking tour of the corporate and lobbying villains of Brussels, a protest at the European Parliament and a chance for you to meet your MEP and tell them direct your feelings about TTIP.

Tickets for this exciting trip will be limited so get your bookings in soon!
