The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) aims to remove trade barriers between the world’s two largest economies—the EU and the US. The goal is to create growth and jobs on both sides of the Atlantic. However, the opposition to TTIP in Europe has increased significantly. This opposition reflects broader discontent at existing political structures, the continuing fall-out of the economic crises evident in Europe since 2008 and the concerns many Europeans feel about the revelations concerning the National Security Agency. This work looks at eleven of the myths of the anti-TTIP campaign and provides fact based responses.
