And I want to talk to the Mayors here today. I want to establish a partnership with you on housing when I am @EU_Commission President, to achieve:
👉 Affordable housing for young people
👉 Adapted homes for elderly people
👉 More energy efficient housing

Frans Timmermans za 18 mei 2019, 11:41

We need to urgently make the transition to a green economy. The conservatives pretend this will hurt average people. No! It will hurt these people most if we don’t act! These people can’t escape air pollution in dirty cities by buying a second home!

Frans Timmermans za 18 mei 2019, 11:39

Salaries are too low in Hungary. The people at the top are doing well but ordinary workers are not doing well: teachers, railway workers, factory workers all need a pay rise, with the help of the trade unions.

Frans Timmermans za 18 mei 2019, 11:37

We have our own answers to the challenges people are facing in Europe.
#ItsTime that companies making big profits in Europe pay fair taxes here.
We need a fair minimum wage in every member state of the European Union.
We need to put an end to the pay gap between women and men.

If we are strong in the European Parliament we can be strong for working people

Frans Timmermans za 18 mei 2019, 09:21

We want a Europe that fights for the people who can’t fight for themselves.

Frans Timmermans za 18 mei 2019, 09:21

We want a Europe that helps people who can’t find housing, because it is becoming too expensive

Hear, hear @Bulc_EU! Indeed, people are at the heart of (rail) transport. We make people move...towards a better common European future! 🚂🚊🚄

People that were tempted by nationalists and populists are now seeing the consequences, and they are getting disappointed when they see they cannot deliver.

Look at the UK: it is like Game of Thrones on steroids!

Frans Timmermans wo 15 mei 2019, 22:15

We need to act urgently on climate change. The longer we wait, the more people will suffer.

And Weber and the EPP are dinosaurs 🦖🦕🦖🦕🦖 who have failed to deliver in the past five years.

#ItsTime to act on climate change.

Every time a person dies in the Mediterranean, Europe loses a part of its soul. So we need to rescue people at sea, but we also need to try and stop people getting on these boats in the first place, by creating a better life for them at home.

I really enjoyed campaigning in Portugal on Sunday!

My message to the young people in Viseu is the same message I want to send to all young people across Europe.

You can hear and read what I said in this video.

Thanks to @Europarl_EN for capturing the spirit of our campaign in this video. We have been talking to people all over Europe about their dreams for the future. I look forward to debating my fellow candidates on Wednesday and representing all these passionate Europeans.

Frans Timmermans ma 13 mei 2019, 14:41

Housing is one of the biggest concerns for people I talk to across Europe. If it’s a problem for Europeans, then it’s a problem for Europe. That’s why I will support social and affordable housing if you help me become the next @EU_Commission President.

Frans Timmermans zo 12 mei 2019, 15:27

But if you want socialists to win you have to go and vote for them in the European elections! Do not be indifferent! Do not stay at home and watch other people decide your future!

Frans Timmermans zo 12 mei 2019, 15:25

When people say to me ‘socialism doesn’t work in Europe’ I tell them to go to Portugal and see what @antoniocostapm and @psocialista achieved.

Frans Timmermans zo 12 mei 2019, 15:22

When @psocialista won the elections in Portugal, @antoniocostapm came to Brussels with his plan to stop austerity and take care of the Portuguese people.

Erdogan does not accept defeat and goes against the will of the people. AKP pressured YSK to re-run local elections in Istanbul. This ends the credibility of democratic transition of power through elections in Turkey.

Maarten Wienbelt za 4 mei 2019, 19:11

@Rainmaker1973 @maxkeiser Maybe we need to count again. Maybe the more fake people are given a vote the easier it is to frame elections?

Maarten Wienbelt za 4 mei 2019, 18:54

@TimmermansEU Because they don't vote you call them a silent minority but many of them don not consent, they just lost all hope and faith in people like you!

+2Reply of ⁦@pierremoscovici⁩ to our letter on #FATCA “@EU_Commission will not do anything for you. We actually don’t even believe you exist. You’re probaby tax evaders anyway”. It is clearly urgent to get figures on the number of people affected by #FATCA!

Frans Timmermans do 2 mei 2019, 18:54

We have given the European Parliament and the European people the chance to choose the future of the European Union with the #Spitzenkandidat process. To take that away would be bad for democracy.

Frans Timmermans do 2 mei 2019, 18:13

By the end of this month you will have to take a crucial decision about the very soul of Europe.

👉 People in Europe want to go forward not backward

👉 They want equality

👉 They want cooperation

👉 They want sustainability

✊ We need to be on their side ✊

'So how representative can a local candidate – who’s never experienced our brand of mobility – really be for us?'

Well, at least this time around people can vote for a candidate with that experience. IF they vote in NL 🇳🇱

Thanks @alemannoEU for this necessary article!

Great to see so many young people mobilising their peers to go out and vote 🗳

I want
✅ A decent minimum wage in every member state
✅ A fair contract for young people in the gig economy
✅ Social rights for every European worker
✅ A strong role for trade unions to negotiate better pay and conditions
✅ Better wages in Eastern Europe

❓Are you with me❓

Frans Timmermans ma 29 apr 2019, 19:53

Of course people don’t like it if you cut taxes for the rich and then raise green taxes for the poor!

We need to make the ecological transition in a socially sustainable way.

We need to keep our capacity for critical thinking. I salute the Polish people in particular for seeing through the hatred some people direct against the @EU_Commission and maintaining their high levels of support for the EU.

99.7% of people flagged by the German #PNR system are false hits. How does this measure with such a disproportionate breach of citizens’ privacy make us safer? And how much EU money was spent on this flawed system? My letter to @EU_Commission⤵️

There are moderate Muslims but there is no moderate islam.

Islam stands for submission, violence and is intolerant to everything that is non-Islamic.

Freedom and Islam are incompatible.

How many more innocent people have to die before the elites listen?

Islam is a worldwide death cult.

More attacks will follow all over the free world unless we stop islam, deislamize our societies and finally protect the freedom and security of our people!
