Saturday 18th April will be an international day of action against TTIP and other damaging trade deals.
Why should corporations have the right to sue governments for making decisions that damage their profits? Under TTIP, this could be a reality. Cigarette companies suing governments for bringing in plain tobacco packaging, energy companies suing governments for phasing out nuclear power…this kind of thing has already happened under similar trade deals elsewhere.
The global fightback continues with a day of protest, awareness-raising and action on Saturday 18th April. There’s nothing specifically happening in Oxford that we know of, but the interactive map on the Global Justice Now website shows just how many different things are happening all over the world. The site also gives details of what’s happening in central London and Manchester, but they won’t be the only UK protests!
