Thousands campaign across Britain against sinister Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership between EU and US
Large demonstrations held in London, Edinburgh, Manchester and Cardiff over pact that could spell the end of public services

Thousands of campaigners protested at the weekend against a free trade agreement granting multinationals the right to sue countries for having to pay corporation tax.

Opponents of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) hosted events across Britain on Saturday, including large demonstrations in London, Edinburgh, Manchester and Cardiff.

Charity War on Want executive director John Hilary told the Star: “The actions around the country showed the rising outrage of ordinary working people at the powers that TTIP would give to transnational capital.”
