The European Parliament has repeatedly called for social progress and the protection of EU workers’ rights, while failing to offer its own interns decent working conditions As this article outlines; we read stories from interns within the European institutions, who did not have enough money to buy food, or not enough money to afford a flat in Brussels and had to sleep on camping sites and in…

EU Empire Building Continues Apace

I’ve blogged about it before a couple of times; Why you should know about TTIP and TTIP – clear as mud. The latest news from the continent is that, remarkably, ‘TTIP-free zones’ are…
