The pressure group said the memorandum is based on its principles within the context of Malta as a European Union member state.

Moviment Graffitti appealed to leftists and progressives to support those ready to give importance to these issues if elected in the EP.

Moviment Graffitti’s memorandum reads as follows:

Those elected in the European Parliament should work for:

1. Peace and defence of Malta’s neutrality;

2. Workers’ and trade unions’ rights, including the struggle against unemployment;

3. An important role for the public sector within the economic and social spheres, as well as the halting of the liberalisation process of the economy;

4. Animal rights, including the abolition of hunting in spring;

5. Food safety – including the protection of farmers and consumers from the threat posed by genetically modified organisms;

6. Civil rights and sexual equality, including policies that permit gay partnerships/marriages, the legalisation of divorce and a pro-choice position as regards abortion;

7. Humane policies regarding immigrants and asylum seekers;

8. Policies through which local and agricultural communities and non-governmental organisations are given a greater say in areas such as development and protection of the environment;

9. That the EU becomes more democratic through the EP, increased involvement of civil society and increased subsidiarity;

10. That Malta does not surrender sovereignty in areas such as foreign policy, taxation and social benefits.

Moviment Graffitti added that it is active against the exploitation and oppression of people, animals and the environment; with a vision of freedom and radical democracy.
