Mullooly calls on Sligo TD to use Government formation talks to highlight Mercosur opposition

A Midlands North West MEP has called on the Sligo Leitrim Deputy, Marina Harkin to once again outline her opposition to the EU-Mercosur Deal during the Government formation talks  

Ciaran Mullooly, has written to Independent TDs in the region urging them to make their opposition to the trade deal a red line issue in the upcoming government formation talks.

 The Independent Ireland MEP is also looking to forge alliances among EU MEPs to block the controversial agreement at European level.

Mullooly described the deal as “an immediate threat to Irish farmers, rural communities, and the EU’s own environmental and legal integrity.

He says Independent TD’s can take a stance during the formation talks for the next government.
