The EU has a big vote on TTIP this Wednesday - make your voice heard now

Which MEPs will stand up for national sovereignty and England's NHS? Wednesday's key vote is a crucial test, especially on the hated idea of 'investor courts'.

The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, or TTIP, has received an unprecedented amount of attention from constituents and campaigners.

This Wednesday 10 June will mark a crucial moment for the EU, when Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) will official adopt their vision of a trade deal currently under negotiation between the European Union and United States.

The message is clear: people are concerned that it could put our NHS and public services at risk, lower our high regulatory standards and worker protections and undermine the sovereignty of our governments. Others reject any notion of a trade agreement with the US at all.
