British strikes take on EU dimension - by Honor Mahony
A series of strikes in Britain revolving around a key EU internal market law have taken on a European dimension as a group of leftist MEPs take up the protesters' cause. Five MEPs from the Socialist, Green and leftist factions in the European Parliament on Wednesday (4 February) signed a declaration pledging to veto the swearing in of the next European Commission in autumn if the law is not changed.
Note EU-Digest: Trying to change the key EU law of free access to member state labor markets would be the kiss of death to the existence of the EU and return Europe once again to a status of instability.
