Since its foundation in 1976, the European People’s Party (EPP) has advocated in favour of a strong, transparent and efficient Europe at the service of its citizens. The 2014 European Elections marked the fourth victory for the EPP and reaffirmed the party as the leading political force in Europe. Every day the renewed trust of the European citizens is the driving inspiration for the EPP’s activities. Being the largest political party entails the great responsibility to deliver on all those issues which matter the most to our citizens: jobs and economic stability, competitiveness, security, and prosperity.
We are committed to working with our member parties and associations, our heads of state and government, our ministers in the EPP Ministerial Meetings, President Tusk, President Juncker and the EPP Commissioners, and our Group in the European Parliament to achieve these objectives and to promote our values, which we derive from our Christian Democrat tradition: the dignity of the human being, freedom, responsibility, equality, truth, justice, solidarity and subsidiarity.
We are aware of the importance of being united as well as the privilege of our differences, and of the importance of reaching our citizens and being more accessible in an increasingly interconnected reality. We wish to offer the openness, dialogue and opportunity for debate which has always distinguished our political family.

Secretary General
The EPP Manifesto, also adopted at the 2012 EPP Congress in Bucharest, outlines the basic principles of the Party summarising who we are, what our values are, what challenges are we facing and what vision we have for the future. The Manifesto was developed in parallel to the EPP Platform document within the EPP Working Group 1 for “European Policy”.
What we believe and what we will do for Europe.
Peace, freedom, and solidarity are some of the values on which our Union has been founded. We have to cultivate them to preserve the European way of life. This will be only achieved if we act together, with #ThePowerOfWE💪🏼

We want a strong Europe💪. One that secures its borders, protects its citizens, and pools our 🇪🇺 defense resources together. In 35 days we will open a #NewChapter4Europe. Let's show that we are #StrongerTogether!
Now, near the election you suddenly stand for a strong border policy, is this a joke? 🤣🤣🤣. I think the new right wing alliance will have a better offer when it comes to strong borders and migration policy.
In so many years of EPP leadership in Europe, how many African and Muslim migrants came here with your support just to replace the European population and make our daily life much more difficult due to an increased insecurity and their refusal of gender equality?
Manfred Weber
I listened, learnt and led. I am thankful for the opinions and ideas of the people I’ve had the opportunity to talk to. 19 different countries. 3 months. Thousands of new ideas to build a #BetterEurope. The Listening Tour has been a success which has helped me to better understand the realities that EU citizens face in their day to day lives. It's all about us, it's all about #ThePowerOfWE

🔴 REPLAY: Watch the #EuropeanCommission 🇪🇺 clash between Manfred Weber and Frans Timmermans
🇪🇺Guaranteeing stability and unity is at the core of our European elections' campaign. The EU needs it now more then ever. In 36 days we will open a #NewChapter4Europe. Together we have #ThePowerOfWE!
Dear Manfred Weber. I kindly invite you to visit Europe and see what is the result of YOUR EPP policy during so many years. I discovered a few days ago Monza, Italy 🇮🇹, in the suburbs of Milan. No European there, just African arrived just due to your laxism. And waiting there, doing nothing or selling drugs, waiting an opportunity to go to another European country, maybe Germany...
🇪🇺🌱I am glad to have met with Greta Thunberg in #Strasbourg today. It's important for me to listen to the young generation and their concerns. We, as EPP - European People's Party, remain committed to finding realistic solutions to fight #ClimateChange and ban #SingleUsePlastics. We only have one planet 🌍!
You know, she is a teen with Aspergers manipulated into incoherent climate hysteria by a leftie pr consultant and an unnaturally attention-seeking mother, and then validated by a virtue-signalling societal elite, neither seeking any real solution to climate change. If your policies are informed by middle class virtue hysteria and manipulated kids... well, no thank you.
látom, már csak fiatal lányokat tudod fűteni - perverz....---
Better send her to school ;)
Damit entlike ich den Schmutz und man darf sich vorstellen wo meine Stimme hingeht...
Can you please get this kid out of our faces already?
Go to school Greta and do your homework, for God's sake!
Better concentrate to other issues or teach her about the connections which she is not aware of, than following a hype with a girl that has good intentions but doesn’t know about the big picture! First strike for EU Elections 🙈
Huh
She forgot to mention that Sweden rulers wanted to let a lot of their coniferous forests burn until the winter will come and fires will just be off, because of the winter and so on, last year. Some Swedes are very smart, but she is not from that category of Swedes. Germany and Poland gave Sweden firetrucks and so on, to put out the fires from their forest. Also, as a controversial view, God gave some intense rain, to compensate for the idiocy, lazyness and fatalism of current Swedish rulers. So the fire forests from Sweden from last year, were put off.
So, why I am not invited to talk in the European Parliament to say my views about how Climate Change can be addressed with minimal efforts? I am not idiot enough, or what? How about painting with white the asphalt from all Europe cities? That is not expensive and extremely effective. A lot of the sun rays will be reflected back, so a lot less heat will be absorbed.
Ranked Worst Europarty For Climate Issues, what are you going to change from today onwards? http://www.caneurope.org/docman/climate-energy-targets/3476-defenders-delayers-dinosaurs-ranking-of-eu-political-groups-and-national-parties-on-climate-change/file

What About us? What about Cyprus? What about Famagusta? We are refugees in our own country the last 45 years! Turkish invasion resulted in the capture of approximately 40% of the island, around 150,000 people (amounting to more than one-quarter of the total population of Cyprus, and to one-third of its Greek Cypriot population) were expelled from the occupied northern part of the island, where Greek Cypriots constituted 80% of the population. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkish_invasion_of_Cyprus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varosha,_Famagusta
EPP Vice president and campaign director Dara Murphy is in the ESU conference in Ciudad Real. He presents the campaign and the highlights of the EPP Manifesto. He calls the seniors to participate in the elections, to go to vote and to convince their neighbours to vote for Partido Popular. Voting for PP is voting for voting for EPP and for Manfred Weber as president of the European Commission.
