Current trade negotiations between the USA and Australia shed some light on exactly how the EU Commission and the secretive EU 133 Committee view future international trade deals with regard to our (EU) public health systems.

Basically the USA is trying to force Australia into accepting that when the state bulk buys medicinal drugs it is acting illegally, distorting international trade and creating unnecessarily restrictive trade barriers.

The Australian state bulk buys the medicinal drugs so that it can provide them free and/or sell them cheap to the Australian public.

How did I find this out? Why does it show the way for the Antidemocratic Proposed EU Constitution? Read on ... ... read full story / add a comment

I believe that popular resistance to the imposition of the neo-liberal
economic agenda is vital- whether one lives in Ireland or Bolivia. However,

Saw Doctors change their mind about the European Union
The band the Saw Doctors has changed their minds about the European Union. The band initially welcomed the EU to Galway in a massive advertisement at the Moneenageisha Roundabout. However, several days later, either they’ve been adbusted, or else the band have had a major change of heart; the poster now reads “The Saw Doctors Condemns the EU in Galway”. If the latter, this is welcome news. It is now also hoped that Macnas, Galway’s famous street performers will follow suit by having a protest instead of their planned performance for the EU ministers. ... read full story / add a comment
