S&D Times - Weekly Update. This week's highlights and what's coming up

Quote of the week by S&D MEP Evin Incir, author of the European Parliament’s first anti-racism report: “Racism is on the rise in all around the European Union. If we do not act, we give racism fertile ground to grow and spread. Racism is not an opinion. It is a human rights violation. It is no coincidence that rising levels of racism are accompanied by the rise of the far right in power in Europe, be it in Italy, Hungary or Sweden.

Our priorities
Our priorities

Today, we face massive social and economic issues that appear only to get worse. Large multinational corporations and their executives care less and less about their employees while continuously taking excess profits and government tax cuts. To add to the problems, dictators continue to disregard human life and state sovereignty, threatening international trade and even democracies. And more than ever before, extreme right politicians campaign on anger, fear, and disinformation only to get your vote.

But it is not all bad. We have solutions and powerful movements to fight the social and economic problems, and threats to our democracy! Join us in creating a future that is fair and sustainable for all of us! You can find out here how we plan to do this.
