TTIP: What Price the EU-US Trade Agreement?

Do you find the prospects of The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), a mega trade agreement between the EU and the US, enticing or frightening?

Many of you will have heard of TTIP. If you have not, pay attention to the news and this strange acronym is bound to crop up very soon. President Obama for example obliquely referred to it last week when he warned that the UK would be at the back of the queue for a trade agreement with the US in case Brexit happens.

Will it bring growth and jobs or will it kill democracy?

Panellists

• Jacqueline Minor (European Commission)
• Allie Renison (Institute of Directors)
• John Hilary (War on Want)
