adminMark Finnegan talks to Ann Marie Butler from UPLIFT to discuss their opposition to TTIP Campaign.
The campaign is asking people to come together and raise our voices in opposition to this dangerous deal.
This campaign focuses on food standards and the possible effects TTIP may have on them in Ireland .
One of the main features of TTIP is that regulations will be standardised on both sides of the Atlantic. As the EU has far higher food protection and health safety standards, these could be lowered to match US standards. Fears about chlorinated chicken and hormone pumped meat being allowed into Ireland could become a reality if TTIP goes through.
