> What's the difference between the EU-US WTO agreements and the TTIP
WTO was about import tariffs.
TTIP seems to be mostly about de-regulation and legal harmonisation.
PR flaks are counting on the good will that people have towards free trade to allow them to squeeze through a treaty that surrenders democratic sovereignty to multi-national corporation stuffed courts and tribunals.
We may or may not get to vote on the treaty - I don't know. But I do know that if we vote yes then that will be one of the last meaningful things that we do vote on. Pretty much any law you might want to pass post-TTIP would be blocked by the TTIP ISDS process.
