Dave Prentis demands public service exemption from TTIP
UNISON leader Dave Prentis demanded yesterday that all public services should have exemption from the controversial TTIP trade deal between the European Union and the US.
Mr Prentis made the call after a reported commitment from the European Commission that the NHS would be “fully safeguarded” under the deal.
It came before co-ordinated street protests across Britain today to oppose the threat posed by TTIP to jobs and public services.
