    Dr Paul O'Connell Reader of law in the School of Law at the University of London.

    TTIP broken down and it's f**in shocking. For those that don't care, the EU has said TTIP will definitely cause a loss of jobs in Europe, the yearly growth projected from this is less than a new iPhone release's econimic boost. 0.036% a year.. this is about giving transnational corps the power, and legal right to stamp all over the worker.

    Worse still, this will mean we all have workers rights like the US <yikes>
    Ability to roll back environmental laws and worse. Watch this, very informative. O'Connel will explain it much better than I ever could.

    TPP was the forerunner of TTIP, Wikileaks made the information available because it was kept secret.
    The order of things will now be Corporations>government>People.

    A multinational company can sue a national government if the government's policies restrict the companies profits. <yikes> the world is upside down.

    November 1 the Lisbon Treaty kicks in also.
