TTIP – Day of action
By Megan Bentall
This Saturday, July 12th, there are events happening across the country to protest TTIP – the Transatlantic Trade Investment Partnership. They’ve been organised by our friends over at World Development Movement, in collaboration with loads of other UK organisations who have major concerns about the negative effects of TTIP.
There are 16 events happening all across the UK, and they’ll be a great way to raise awareness about the dangers of TTIP. There are lots of amazing events planned. There’s a People vs Corporations football match in Swindon, a boxing match between corporate interests and citizens rights in Brighton, a demonstration outside the Department of Business, Innovation and Skills, and loads more.
