International Day of Action on Trade

Today, 18th April, is an International Day of Action against all of the unjust, free trade agreements.  I joined activists campaigning to stop the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) gathered at the Buchanan Street Steps in Glasgow to hand out leaflets and gather signatures for a petition.

No to TTIP Banner at Buchanan Street Steps.

The latest TTIP update states that the European and External Relations Committee of the Scottish Parliament published its report on the TTIP Inquiry at the end of March. It is anticipated that the Scottish Parliament will debate TTIP in the next few months.  Further questions can be raised about TTIP's impact on local government services.
