TTIP deal hidden from view
in windowless cell.
UKIP's Stuart Agnew MEP said: "On
Monday 12th October I was at a viewing of the recently published ‘Restricted’
Agricultural chapter of TTIP. I had to sign a document stating that I would not
disclose what I would read and I had to hand over any electronic gadgets,
cameras, etc. I was allowed a pen but no paper, and then led into a windowless
cell where I was issued with special blank paper which cannot be
photocopied.
"If I publicly disclose what I have read, I will be subject to a minimum
fine of £2233. I will also be at the mercy of Martin Schulz, President of the
European Parliament, who dislikes UKIP and may impose further punishments. If
the agricultural unions or media are willing to fully compensate me, then I may
be tempted to break Parliament rules.
