"ΜέΡΑ25 and Diem25.official
perceive constructive and realistic disobedience as the only solution.
Because in a Europe where hope is dying and smiles have been erased
from the faces of our citizens; in a Greece that continues being a debt
colony while young people leave the country trying to create a better
life for themselves, where those that stay see all their hard-gained
rights being stepped on and all their dreams shattered, disobedience is
the only solution" - Fotini Bakadima, MeRA25 candidate for the European Parliament elections

#HopeIsBack #GreenNewDeal
--------------------------
Introduction
•
European Spring was formed to restore hope to Europe.
•
Our movement is united behind a shared vision of Europe as a realm of democracy,
sustainability, prosperity, and peace.
•
We present this shared vision as a New Deal for Europe.
•
This document sets out the core principles and key policies of the New Deal. Each
pillar of the programme offers immediate solutions to Europe’s political, social, eco-
nomic, and ecological crises.
•
Together, the pillars form a long-term vision of a sustainable way of life. The New
Deal promotes a model of development that takes account of the major challenges
that lie ahead: from the scarcity of natural resources, to labour market automation,
to the destruction of the environment. European Spring is committed to establishing
local systems of production and supply, and to preserving our natural world, cultural
heritage, social progress, and public services.
•
The New Deal provides an alternative to the choice that Europeans currently face –
between apathy and anger, between technocracy and autocracy, between those who
defend the European Union as it exists today and those who wish to destroy it forever.
•
We are aware of the challenge of implementing an ambitious agenda like ours. But
we will use the opportunity of this election to inspire citizens across Europe to join our
coalition for democratic change. Only when millions of citizens stand together will the
demand for change become irresistible.
•
There is no time to waste: Join the movement for European Spring!
