Thousands gather to stop TTIP talks
Hundreds of thousands of people have signed up to a petition demanding an end to the TTIP negotiations in less than a week, fair trade campaigners said yesterday.
More than 520,000 people have now added their names to the European Citizens Initiative’s call for a ban on the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership.
The news came the day after people took to the streets in several cities across Europe to protest against the deals, which threaten the environment, democracy and the rule of law.
