Join us on November 18 for a public debate on the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) - the disputed trade agreement between the EU and the United States - focusing on the key issues for consumers: food, medicines and public services. How should we best incorporate consumer rights in TTIP? Can we guarantee the standards we want on food regulations and labour rights?  These are the key questions for Europe's negotiators - and we want to hear your views. Join us at the debate - in Brussels or online!
