A Toxic Pernicious Partnership ?

3

The TPP – A Toxic Pernicious Partnership? – drafted with an unprecedented secrecy except for the 600 plus corporate advisers who have access to the treaty’s text – including companies such as Halliburton, Monsanto, Walmart, and Chevron. These elite corporations are surely looking after your best interests. Corporatocracy seems to have trumped Democracy with a royal flush. I received a reply the other day from Minister Andrew Robb who assured me that “the Australian Government would not be sign up to International agreements that would restrict Australia’s capacity to govern in our own interest…” etc. I am still waiting for a reply to my question whether he has actually read any of the detail.
