Position

The Greens/European Free Alliance is a European parliamentary party group comprising “Greens and representatives of stateless nations and disadvantaged minorities.” Their priorities are to:

“build a society respectful of fundamental human rights and environmental justice: the rights to self‑determination, to shelter, to good health, to education, to culture, and to a high quality of life;
increase freedom within the world of work, not only by tackling unemployment but also by widening people's choices, releasing human creative potential ;
deepen democracy by decentralisation and direct participation of people in decision‑making that concerns them, and by enhancing openness of government in Council and Commission, and making the Commission fullv answerable to Parliament.
build a European Union of free peoples based on the principle of subsidiarity who believe in solidarity with each other and all the peoples of the world.
re‑orientate the European Union, which currently over‑emphasises its economic conception at the expense of social, cultural and ecological values”
