🧵 Today, the @ec.europa.eu presented the #Omnibus package – a set of “deregulation” measures that undermine key EU legislation in the name of “simplification” & “economic boost.” It's is a step back for climate, workers, & people– while the richest will continue profiting.

Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death among 15-24 y.o. in the EU. It isn’t just a crisis—it’s a political failure. Precarious jobs, unaffordable housing, climate anxiety—this system fuels distress while young people are ignored. Mental health is political. Left MEP @emma-fourreau.bsky.social

Die Linke's result in these German elections is a clear sign of hope for solidarity, justice, & a fairer society! It's a powerful call for action on climate, social justice, & workers' rights. It's a win for Germany & for a stronger antifascist Left across Europe.

Today, the EU will meet with Israel to strengthen ties—while its leaders face an ICC arrest warrant & stand accused of genocide. This isn’t diplomacy. It’s complicity. No justice without the right of return. No EU-Israel Association Agreement while Gaza burns.

Today marks three years since Putin’s illegal invasion of Ukraine—three years of war, destruction, and loss. End the violence. People always lose in war. #Ukraine

Esta tarde, fui impedida de entrar em Aaiun, no Saara Ocidental, pelas autoridades marroquinas. Agentes que não se identificaram e nunca apresentaram qualquer documento, impossibilitaram o desembarque.

The EU has a new obsession, and you're not it. Climate action is old news 🥱 The cost of living crisis is so passé 💁 Instead, the EU wants to pump millions into an arms industry that fuels conflict around the world Another Europe is possible, built on social services, healthcare and climate action

Across the globe, women’s rights are under attack. This war on women’s bodies and basic healthcare must end. Europe must act now to enshrine the right to abortion in the EU Charter of Fundamental rights.

In #EPlenary, our MEPs made it clear: the EU-Mercosur FTA is a dangerous relic prioritising corporate profits over the environment, workers' rights, and public health. We won’t stop until it’s stopped. Join the fight for people and the planet.

Trump & Israel aim to dismantle the Int. Courts & continue ethnic cleansing in Palestine. The EU must choose: defend international law or enable its destruction. @rimahassan.bsky.social was called out for a "Palestine" T-shirt, but why doesn’t the killing of Palestinians even raise an eyebrow?

The EU Commission's Competitiveness Compass is a scam. 95.3M people in the EU were at risk of poverty in 2022—yet the EU pushes deregulation & lower wages, fueling a race to the bottom. Competitiveness shouldn’t mean weaker worker protections & shrinking public services. ⤵️

Today, Left MEPs stood in front of the room where the far right was holding a xenophobic event. They are discussing "remigration"—a euphemism for forced deportation. Racism has no place in the European Parliament and in the EU. They found us in their way. ✊🏽 #NoPasarán

From Gaza to Libya, from Trump’s ICC sanctions to the EU’s hypocrisy, justice is abandoned for convenience. Left MEP Mimmo Lucano condemned those attacks in #Eplenary: "International law is dying before our eyes, even through our complicit silence."

The EU Commission’s 2025 plan is here – and it’s a real magic trick! ✨ Promises fairness, but delivers zero laws to protect workers. Instead of tackling the cost of living or supporting industries, it’s all about deregulation & making big business even richer. 💸

Activists & journalists are spied on, while war criminals walk free. @davidyambio.bsky.social , who exposes Libya’s torture camps, was targeted with advanced spyware linked to a global surveillance network. This is an attack on human rights & democracy. The EU must act.

For decades, Turkey has blocked the truth about the missing in #Cyprus —both Greek Cypriots & Turkish Cypriots. Families are still waiting. Archives remain closed. Justice is denied. Giorgos Georgiou demands action. The EU must hold Turkey accountable. 📺 Watch now ⬇️

Trump sanctions the ICC, undermining international justice. Yet, the European Parliament refuses to even vote on a resolution condemning it. Silence is complicity—international law must be defended

Maja T.’s extradition was illegal. Germany must act immediately to bring them home. No one should face politically motivated prosecutions and extreme punishment in Orban's Hungary. Human rights & the rule of law are not negotiable. The EU must stand by its values—no more extraditions to Hungary.
