There’s help for Christians who want to stimulate discussion ahead of next month’s Euro-elections.
The Conference of European Churches (CEC ) has published a booklet of suggested points to be raised with candidates.
The material can be found at www.ecumenicalvoices2009.eu.
The Trade Justice Movement (TJM) is also offering an MEP lobby pack. It aims to help voters to lobby candidates about Europe’s trade deals.
Said a TJM spokesman: “This is a key opportunity to put our opposition to Europe’s trade deals on the political agenda and to help bring about a fairer approach to Europe’s trade with poor countries.”
The pack contains lobbying advice and background information on Europe’s trade deals, a list of MEP candidates by region, and template letters and press releases. You can download it by visiting www.tjm.org.uk.
