ACTA: Last-Minute Appeal to EPP Group

If you watched the stream of the plenary session in the European Parliament yesterday, you will know that what we saw was an incredible parade of politicians from all parties denouncing ACTA - with one exception. The centre-right EPP Group is asking for a decision on ACTA to be postponed until after the European Court of Justice hands down its judgement on the compatibility of the treaty with EU law. That's likely to take a year or two, and amounts to a massive delaying tactic, as I've explained before.
