MODERATORS
There are also German EU politicians pushing against it. It's not like there is a German consensus to it.
I didn't say there was German consensus, but the fact that politicians in almost all member states are either pro or considering it is frightening.
You'll always find someone fighting for something stupid. I guess in the EU it's mostly the conservatives pushing for it, who are sadly a bit on the rise right now as it seems.
who is pushing against it? the pirate party did not get any seats in the EU parliament this round
For example the greens, the left, the SPD and even the FDP.
Edit: Even the right wing nuts from the AfD are against it.
