Europe is at a crossroads. The continent we once dreamed of is crumbling under the weight of neglect, division, and complicity in global injustice. Elections are being cancelled. Xenophobia is on the rise. A new unholy alliance of ultra-rightists, conservatives, centrists, and even some so-called ‘greens’ is steering Europe further away from its founding ideals. Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, the sirens of Donald Trump and Elon Musk beckon – and Europe’s leaders seem all too willing to follow.

From Gaza to Ukraine, the European Union’s role in perpetuating global atrocities reflects its domestic failures: rising poverty, mounting authoritarianism, and an absence of vision. Instead of acting as a force for peace and cooperation, Europe has become a pawn in the New Cold War, bowing to United States imperialism and abandoning any sense of independence or purpose.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

This event is not just another discussion; it’s a rallying cry. Featuring uncompromising voices from across politics, activism, and the arts, we will expose the EU’s darkest truths and lay out a vision for a Europe that serves its people, fosters peace, and promotes cooperation for the common good.

This is more than a conversation – it’s the start of a revolution.

Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of the movement for an independent and just Europe.

Speakers: Yanis Varoufakis, Katie Halper, Grace Blakeley and Melanie Schweizer
