SUMMARY:the3million #DeniedMyBackup Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Topic \nDeniedMyBackup: Take action with the3million for a physical backup to digital immigration status\n\nDescription \nImagine you urgently need a job\, or are looking for a place to live\, and as part of the process you need to prove you have the right to live in the UK. But your passport is no longer enough\, and you have no biometric residence card as proof – just a code to enter into the Home Office database. Just as the landlord or employer logs on to check your ID\, the system crashes\, and you are passed over for someone else whose proof is easier to check. \nAnd that’s not all – to get that code in the first place\, you need not only your passport but also access to the right email address or mobile number that the status was originally linked to. If someone else helped you set this up\, perhaps years ago\, can you imagine the stress of trying to deal with the Home Office website just to prove you have the right to live and work? \nThat may be part of daily life for many EU citizens after 31 December this year\, as the only group of foreign residents in the UK with a digital-only immigration status and no backup option of physical proof. \nthe3million is inviting you to our webinar and Q&A on why EU citizens should have the option for physical proof of immigration status. We’re meeting on Zoom\, Thursday 27 August at 7pm – please register by filling in this form. \nThe panel will be chaired by Luke Piper (the3million) and include Emily McCarron from Age UK who will explain the consequences of a digital-only scheme for older EU citizens\, Monique Hawkins from the3million\, Ian Robinson from Fragomen\, and Ollie Persey from the Public Law Project. There will be short statements at the beginning\, and plenty of time to ask questions. \nThe webinar is open to all and will be recorded and live streamed on the3million’s social media. If you have any difficulties receiving your registration details\, please email research@the3million.org.uk.

SUMMARY:À bientôt EU\, see you soon
DESCRIPTION:FRIDAY 31st JANUARY 2020. \nOn Friday 31st January\, Come and join me to say goodbye to our old friend. Be happy for the times shared\, sad for the times we’ll part\, and express yourself and your love for the friendship we’ve had and hope to have again one day soon. \nWith the permission and co-operation of The London Metropolitan Police I invite you all to join me in a procession from Downing Street to The European Commission in St. John Smith Square. \n\nWe will be congregating at Richmond Terrace opposite Downing Street from 2.30pm. We will promptly set off at 3pm in an orderly procession along the pavement making our way to St. John Smith Square following the route a ministerial car would take and as in the diagram below. \nIf there are any instrumentalists perhaps you could bring your instrument to accompany us singing “Ode to Joy” once there and some other songs. (Yet to be announced). \nThis is not a march but an orderly and peaceful procession to bid a very fond farewell for now\, to our dear and much appreciated friends from all of us who will fight to rejoin our family of nations in the EU as soon as possible. \nThere will be a Facebook page launched soon for the event entitled\, À Bientôt EU\, see you soon \nI look forward to seeing you all on the day. I can think of no better way to mark this day than to honour and thank all the staff at The European Commission\, for this will also be their last day in office. \nIt is not the end\, it is but a pause in time for we know that one day we will be together again. \nAs Winston Churchill wanted\, We think as much of being European as of belonging to our native land and this is how it shall stay from this day forth. \nPeter French.\n17 January 2020.

SUMMARY:30 Years After the Fall of the Iron Curtain - Europe’s Pasts and Futures
DESCRIPTION:The transformation of Europe – Thirty Years On\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nTalk location: Pankhurst Building Room G.01\, Clement’s Inn\, LSE \n1989 was a moment of hope and democracy for Europe. In June\, nearly 30 million Italians voted for a united Europe – some 88 per cent of voters on an 81 per cent turnout. From the summer onwards in Hungary and Poland decisive steps were taken towards multiparty democracy. By the end of the year\, in the most iconic events of 1989\, the Peaceful Revolution erupted in East Germany. \nThe end of communism had come into view and the dawn of a politically united Europe had arrived.Thirty years on the hopes of ’89 have met their difficult realities. Nationalism often appears to trump unity. Technocratic integration has still not had its ‘Monnet moment’ and led to real political unity. Yet the need for Europe is also stronger than ever. From climate change to globalisation cooperation is a necessity not a luxury. \nThe panel will bring together the ‘1989’ and ‘Millennial’ generations to build a unique dialogue about Europe’s past and future. \n\nBarbara Einhorn is Emeritus Professor of Gender Studies at the University of Sussex and author of Cinderella Goes to Market Citizenship; Gender and Women’s Movements in East Central Europe (Verso\, 1993).\nAlena Ivanova grew up in Bulgaria in the 1990s and is today an anti-Brexit campaigner in London with the Another Europe Is Possible campaign.\nMary Kaldor is a professor of Global Governance at the LSE and was a leading figure in the European peace and human rights movement of the 1980s.\nAna Oppenheim grew up in Poland in the 1990s and today is an anti-Brexit campaigner in London with Another Europe Is Possible.\nGert Weisskirchen is a former member of the German Bundestag and was active in European Nuclear Disarmament in the 1980s.\n\n*** With welcome and introductory remarks from Christos Katsioulis\, Director of the London office of the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung. \nThe event will be followed by drinks and refreshments in the ground floor of the LSE Centre Building on Houghton Street.
