Find out here if *your* MEPs are amongst those fighting hard to oppose #TTIP letting corporations sue governments if they try to protect citizens & public services. A list follows of the UK MEPs who have so far signed up to amendment 27 (to scrap this dangerous 'ISDS' system of 'investor courts') in a key vote coming up this week.

If your local MEPs (you have 6) AREN'T all on the list below, then tweet or email them (https://www.writetothem.com/ lets you find out who they are an email them all in a few clicks) & ask them to back amendment 27 to protect UK's services, citizens and sovereignty.

Note particularly that Labour MEPs promised to oppose this 'ISDS' system but have been criticised for backtracking, and are reported to be split. Whilst some have signed up to amendment 27 along with Green and other parties, some Labour MEPs so far (including David Martin, their trade leader) are so far just backing a much weaker amendment which doesn't really do enough to prevent these investor courts.

The MEPs who HAVE already signed the strong anti-ISDS amendment, 27, are:

Kirton-Darling Jude
Anderson Martina
Simon Peter
Corbett Richard
Griffin Theresa
Ward Julie
Dodds Anneliese
Howitt Richard
Dance Seb
Brannen Paul
Moody Clare
Simon Siôn
Khan Afzal
Anderson Lucy
Gill Neena
Willmott Glenis
Lambert Jean
Taylor Keith
Scott Cato Molly
Evans Jill
