It's all about Trade Agreements

Day two at #GAPC2015 at the EICC. Lots of interesting speakers again, both to photograph and to listen to. Here Professor Jane Kelsey, Professor of Law at the University of Auckland, New Zealand expands on her plenary session of yesterday about the 'three-headed hydra' of TPPA (Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement) TTIP (Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership) and TISA (Trade In Services Agreement) in one of the simultaneous sessions. She was discussing what can be done to counter these agreements, which are supposedly in the interests of improving trade but seem to be all about the interests of global capital at the expense of the rights of democratic governments and their citizens.
