The contribution would be used to combat climate change and inequality and would help to ensure that European citizens pay their fair share towards achieving these objectives.

The minimum threshold of signatories is only required a quarter of the EU countries, so in 7 of 27. France is already at 188% of the required threshold, Denmark at 88% and Germany at 80%

    If this is something you want, you shouldn’t be voting for right-wingers, then, should you?

      Right-wingers won’t touch the rich. They are the ones that keep lowering their taxes.

      “Eat the rich” is not a right-wing slogan.

        Yes. That’s the point.

        The whole continent just pivoted Right, and thusly endeavours like this one are dead on arrival.

          I misread your comment. Apologies. Thought you saying right-wingers would tax the rich.

          Yeah, Europe is just becoming an American colony. They didn’t prepare their citizens for the internet and a reaping the stupidity rewards.

        It’s a collective “you”. Europe went all-in on Right- parties, and squaring that with “tax the rich” is challenging.

          So, I personally didn’t vote for any far-right party. And I suspect neither did a lot of the people in this community. That “collective you” seems woefully misapplied.
