The Green Left Alliance programme for the European elections

Reform of the European Institutions, Majority Voting, Presidents
Legislative Initiative of the Parliament
Initiate a constituent process for a united, solidary and democratic Europe by convening a Convention for a reform of the Treaties which would, among other things, provide for the right of legislative initiative for the Parliament and the abolition of unanimous voting in the Council in those areas where it still applies.

New rules for the budget, common debt and Eurobonds No more austerity
Adopt a carbon tax on companies that do not meet environmental standards. Provide member states with the necessary room for manoeuvre to finance investments for a fair transition. Convene a European debt conference for restructuring and mutualisation.

Ukraine and the new geopolitical framework: beyond military cooperation
Stop arms supplies
Stop military supplies and create a framework for a ceasefire in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the withdrawal of Russian troops and the start of negotiations for a lasting peace. Work using all diplomatic and economic levers for an immediate and unconditional ceasefire in Gaza.

Business, competitiveness, energy and environment. Barriers and incentives Greener industry
Impose social and ecological conditionality on all companies receiving public aid. Extend the list of sectors of general interest and common goods exempt from competition law. End the era of fossil fuels and introduce an annual European cap on gas and electricity prices.

Wages and tax wedge, contracts and training of workers, pensions Reduce the working week
Adopt a directive to index wages to inflation in all states. Reduce the maximum length of the working week for the same wage. Make permanent, strengthen and extend the European support instrument for unemployment risk mitigation in emergencies (Sure).
