Don't condemn effects and ignore causes. Don't pretend repression in has nothing to do with the . The EU is a participant in a wider regime of global inequality extracting its price there, a pattern repeated across , across the world. It's our repression too.

The idea of an independent EU ethics body is something to be welcomed. But if the ethics body focuses only on individual behaviour and doesn't address systemic issues, such as the institutionalisation of lobbying in EU bodies, we run the real risk of fiddling while Rome burns.

I find it jaw-dropping the complete lack of curiosity among EU elites as to who is reponsible for an act of sabotage against the infrastructure of an EU Member State and the livelihoods of our citizens. Where is the discussion? Where are the questions?
RT @ClareDalyMEP: A new article by Sy Hersh makes the deeply troubling claim the US/Norway carried out joint attacks against infrastructure of a NATO ally & EU member state. Serious and detaile…

The people of Syria were abandoned before the earthquake ever hit,its economy and reconstruction battered by Western sanctions. The UN Syria humanitarian programme last year was only 47% funded. Aid agencies are screaming for sanctions to be lifted, or thousands more may die.
RT @ClareDalyMEP: Devastating news of the earthquake aftermath. A desperate tragedy in Turkey. Something even more appalling in Syria, where it comes after a decade of war, in a country batt…

It should never happen that people work their entire lives only to see their pensions decimated by decisions of faraway management. Ireland's 'softly softly' approach to multinationals is not good enough. I support revising the European Works Council Directive to address this.

We reject the vision of a militarised European Union driven by the establishment and the arms industry. Stability and peace can only be achieved through peaceful conflict resolution, arms control and disarmament measures. Militarism and war are not and never will be the solution.

EU geopolitical games have backfired on ordinary Europeans, now waking up every day poorer than the day before. Tinkering around the edges will not fix this. Unless we abandon neoliberalism and examine renationalisation of energy and infrastructure, we're on a hiding to nothing.

The EU's anti-money laundering blacklist is biased and inconsistent, and has more to do with lobbying power than a genuine assessment of risk. Nothing about the Netherlands, Ireland, the US or the UAE, but Vanuatu, with a GDP 9% of Greece's, is a threat to EU financial integrity?

Nobody wins in war & no serious person thinks Ukraine can win an absolute victory in this one. 1000s of civilians & 10,000s of soldiers dead. 1,000,000s displaced. For Ukraine to survive, for any peace to be just & sustainable, shrill jingoism & belligerence from the EU must end.

Afghan people do not deserve to suffer for the West losing its unjust war. Hard to take the hand-wringing when hardly 10/700 MEPs can bother to talk about the desperate conditions faced by millions in Afghanistan. We have to face facts and drop sanctions to let Afghans live.

When I made this speech, Italian anarchist was on his 105th day of hunger strike against the vicious prison regime he's been placed under. Today is the 109th day. The Minister for Justice must act now. Any delay is a death sentence. Will the EU say nothing?

It is not the EU's job to regulate political expression. The Regulation on Political Advertising is a major intervention into the political culture of member states, with far reaching implications for civil society, for grassroots networks, for anyone intervening in public debate

Very glad to attend the launch today of the highly engaging radical art exhibition, "Under the same sky, around the same sea," by the FireArt art collective in Thessaloniki and the Nazim Hikmet Cultural Center in Istanbul, hosted by @gt_kke at the European Parliament.

I oppose the death penalty categorically & I abhor its use in Iran. Imperialist meddling is a fact but it is not an excuse. The West is poised to exploit crisis for geopolitical gain. If repression continues and the legitimate demands are not heeded, I'm fearful for Iran's future

An internal European Parliament legal analysis of the proposal cautioned against engaging on such a path without considering its effect on the possibility of reaching a peace deal. We have consistently opposed attempts in the Parliament to obstruct peace. europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etu
