REJECTED, REFUSED, KILLED, DESTROYED, AWASH… :-)

I doubt the industrial lobbies will be able to recover from such a blow… They could survive without the popular support, but only in so far as they had politician ears…

I seems politis is afraid on millions of ANONYMOUS internet users… it seems ANONYMOUS vote…

WE are LEGION
EXPECT us

If you try to Google ACTA this time of year, you will get a lot of hits for baseball player Manny Acta, making anything on the ACTA that much harder to find.

Whether that is representative of how the vote will go I cannot say, but i am not impressed with how representative it seems of how accountable these people feel to the public. All the ones I had were clearly auto responds but I have no beef with that as I can appreciate they are very busy and must get far too many emails on a contentious topic like this to reply personally. However, they did take the trouble to prepare the auto replies and send them off to anyone enquiring about ACTA, so that effort is noted.

Additionally, a number went to some trouble over their auto replies, passing to us lots of useful information and observations on ACTA, their views on it and their voting intentions with reasons. One even addressed me by name. A couple took the trouble to explain the basics in terms simple enough for even me to understand.

Anyway, Carl Schlyter of the Swedish Greens said this: “The only reason all committees in the EP have voted down ACTA sofar is
because of YOU and others. It is a rare example when democracy works and
lobby interests fail. Nothing has changed since more than a year in the
text, the only reason EP has changed its position is because of public
pressure.”

So even without the courtesy of replies I think there is little doubt that such strong objections from so many of us peasants does have an effect. The fact that some in power see it as ‘terrorism’ and one threw his toys out of the pram would seem to support this view.
