LIVE: Co-presidents @TerryReintke & @ph_lamberts present our priorities for this week's #EPlenary:
📈energy crisis
🌍 #COP27
🏳️🌈 hate crime against the #LGBTIQ community and attacks in #Bratislava
Watch here: https://t.co/zxVhwGtPOR🔴
"Daphne Caruana Galizia's murder has left a long lasting stain in Malta's democracy, society & that government's legacy.
It has also revealed the real state of democracy & media freedom in Europe.
What has the EU done to #protectJournalists since then?"
On #EndPovertyDay, we must support people in #EnergyPoverty!
➡️ raise min wages & income
➡️ no evictions & energy cuts
➡️ help people save energy & renovate
➡️ tax excess profits of corporations benefiting from the crisis
Our & @RightToEnergy handbook: https://greens.eu/3s7TLxr
"This winter, people in this Union will die from hunger & cold.
European leaders must take action for people: Don't lose sight of ending homelessness by 2030. Make sure no one will die from cold. A moratorium on evictions & energy cuts."
- our @kimvsparrentak on #EndPovertyDay
"Poverty is rising in Europe.
We need:
📢 minimum incomes above the poverty line
📢 to implement the minimum wages directive ASAP
📢 to ban home evictions and energy cuts
This #EndPovertyDay is a wake-up call. There's no time to lose."
- our MEP @msaraswati
RT @anna_cavazzini: Unbelievable! In March 2020, the @EU_Commission announced the Right to Repair. It was scheduled for this November. Now, it has been postponed due to a negative assessment by the Regulatory Scrutiny Board. It cannot be that major Green Deal legislation keeps getting postponed!
RT @europeangreens: 🕯 Today marks 5 years since the murder of anti-corruption journalist #DaphneCaruanaGalizia. Seeking the truth should not put the lives of journalists under threat.
🇪🇺 The EU must work to protect journalists!
Fixing a broken phone is difficult & expensive. Doesn't make sense for your wallet nor the environment.
@EU_Commission is set to launch a #RepairScore, but it's missing the price of spare parts.
On #RepairDay, join us asking @EU_Commission to include it: https://greens.eu/3Csy6F7
RT @ciarancuffe: The way we travel around our cities is changing. Yesterday I submitted changes to a @europarl_en report on urban mobility saying that we need
🚦safer speed limits
🚐more public transport
👩🦯pedestrian improvements
🌳more green space
🚴segregated cycle lanes

RT @anna_cavazzini: .@SkaKeller & me are in Mexico this week to follow up on the case of Human Rights defenders Bety Cariño & Jyri Jaakkola who were killed 12 years ago. There still is no justice. The systematic impunity of attacks against human rights defenders in the country is inacceptable!
RT @yjadot: Rapport édifiant du @WWFFrance. Le vivant est partout dégradé, partout menacé ! Pourtant les solutions existent, sur l’agriculture, les forêts, les pollutions… Agissons!
RT @HNeumannMEP: This time, we must do everything possible to break the vicious cycle of killing, impunity & silence - and make sure that the people in #Iran do not risk their lives for nothing.
My speech @EP_HumanRights:
#IranProtests #NikaShakarami #MahsaAmini #JinaAmini #IranProtests2022
@TerryReintke @ph_lamberts @ernesturtasun @jordisolef @BasEickhout @Kira_MPH @marietouss1 @europeangreens @FYEG “Now it's time to get to work. To find answers to the climate crisis. To fight for social justice. To defend democracy, the rule of law and fundamental rights in the EU. I am ready," our new Co-President @TerryReintke.

RT @TerryReintke: Yeah! ✨💖 I just got elected as new Co-Chair of @greensefa. I am completely overwhelmed and happy about the great trust that was put in me. Let’s do this! 1/3
BREAKING: Our @TerryReintke has just been elected as Co-President of our Group!
Congratulations Terry, we are sure that together with @ph_lamberts you will lead the way to make Europe greener, more social and more democratic💚
Who runs the world?
Who runs the revolution?
Who can do anything?
GIRLS!
In Iran, schoolgirls show fury and bravery. They show the middle finger to the country’s leadership.
There is no stopping girls. Let them lead.
On #WorldMentalHealthDay, we look back at what our interns told us about how unemployment, the housing crisis and climate change have impacted their #MentalHealth.
🧘Mental health is wealth.

Rising prices make people go homeless, while institutional investors buy homes as investments & long-term rentals are converted into short-term rentals for profit.
There are solutions to end homelessness & make homes affordable. Now we need political will.
We will continue to support Iranian women and #WomenRights protesters across #Iran.
We call on the #EU to apply pressure on Iranian authorities to stop violence against peaceful protesters and abolish the archaic laws that control women’s autonomy and rights.
