The Left secured a debate in #eplenary with Council & Commission about the impacts of the @ecb policy on households & workers.
‼️Stop destroying living standards
‼️Make banks' profits cover the costs & impacts of increasing interest rates.

This decision is political, not technical.
Ignoring root causes of inflation, economic & social realities, and country-specific impacts is unacceptable.
Let's prioritize informed decisions for economic justice.

More and more families are struggling to afford their housing loans, which have skyrocketed.
Small and medium-sized enterprises and even governments are also experiencing the consequences.

Urgently halt rising interest rates, tackle inflation's root causes, protect wages and purchasing power.
Commission's responsibility for low-wage policies mustn't be overlooked.
Time for economic justice!

Urgent action needed: Banks must bear costs of rising interest rates, not families.
Profits shouldn't come at the expense of struggling households.
Let's prioritize fair compensation and protect those affected.
