Roberta Metsola @president.europarl.europa.eu denied a request from 145 MEPs to ask for a legal opinion on the #EUMercosur deal
Her argument - that the EU has to sign the deal before MEPs can ask the Court of Justice to check its legality - is plainly and obviously wrong

Samen met APIB projecteerden we een krachtige lichtshow: stemmen van Inheemse volken, beelden van vernietiging én hoop. ✊

As the world prepares for COP30 in the Amazon, the rainforest is already dangerously close to collapse.
The EU-Mercosur deal approved by the European Commission today brings that tipping point one step closer.
MEPs and governments must reject this dangerous deal!

‘Half the tree of life’: ecologists’ horror as nature reserves are emptied of insects
A new point in history has been reached, entomologists say, as climate-led species’ collapse moves up the food chain even in supposedly protected regions free of pesticides

New research: The #EUMercosur trade deal is a major threat to human rights, nature and the climate – and would net over a billion in profits for the world's biggest meat producer, JBS
Politicians should not enable billionaires like JBS to expand their predatory business models

EU-Mercosur deal would boost world’s biggest meat company’s profits by over €1 billion - Greenpeace European Unit
According to Profundo’s research, JBS, the largest meat producer on earth, could gain €1.7 billion in extra profits before tax and €1.2 billion after tax by 2040 if the EU-Mercosur deal is adopted.

Really sad to see @volteuropa.org @voltnederland.org supporting a trade deal that is opposed by more than 450 orgs from civil society, consumers, trade unions, indigenous peoples, and over 2 million citizens across the EU. (see: stopeumercosur.org ) What gives, @volteuropa.org ??
VOLT’s liberal turn continues:
After voting @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu 2.0 in office (despite turning her back Green Deal, hawkish on migration and embracing deregulation) Volt now acritically supports MERCOSUR.
How can the EU Greens tolerate such an ideological gap with the panEU party?
