The above (Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership) appears to be one of those things that don't effect the person in the street much, a trade deal being put together by the EU and USA which of course impacts on us too.

However when the government tries to stop information about it being released into the public domain it suggests that there are elements of it they do not want us to know about. I found this interesting:

The article contains some examples of how large American companies have sued national governments for apparently putting their people or environment before profit.

Looks like it comes with being part of the EU of course, so is the TTIP good for the UK or not?
