<P><BIG>Hi,</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>Well, <B>they said we couldn’t do it.</B> When we began <B>our campaign
to back coronabonds</B> - a vital tool for EU solidarity to tackle poverty
caused by coronavirus - lots of people told us the campaign would never succeed.
The idea <B>was just too radical.</B></BIG></P>
<P><BIG>But they were wrong. Just a few weeks ago, when <B>the European
Commission announced the recovery plan for Europe, coronabonds were part of the
proposal!</B> [1]</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>The announcement of the bonds is <B>an unprecedented first step.</B> And
we got this far because of people power. 320,000 of us signed a petition and
thousands messaged MEPs before a critical vote, to <STRONG>tell them to back the
bonds.</STRONG></BIG></P>
<P><BIG>There is still lots of work to do, because even though <B>the
Commission’s proposal is ambitious, it is still just that - a proposal.</B> And
while we have some key governments on our side (Germany, France, and Italy),
<B>we also have some big opponents to tackle.</B> [2] We are looking at least
another year of campaigning and are now planning our next steps. If each of us
<B>donate just a few euros each month, we can be much more confident to dream
big for this campaign,</B> knowing the WeMove community is backing this
plan.</BIG></P>

<P><BIG>We need to continue the political work with partners -- to <STRONG>make
sure that the bonds come with “green strings”, so there’s no risk they’ll be
invested in industries which hurt the planet.</STRONG> Second, we need to make
sure the bonds are used wisely <STRONG>to make life better for ordinary
Europeans, not big business.</STRONG></BIG></P>
<P><BIG>We also need to make sure that we are telling everyone we know about
this campaign and bringing them with us. We need to convince young people just
how important this is. And that means going to them -- on social media.
<STRONG>We’ll use social media to spread the word, and bring even more people on
board with the campaign</STRONG> -- this means hiring someone who knows these
tools and putting aside an advertising budget to make sure our campaign is being
seen far and wide.</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>To make the campaign work, we need to be able to plan for the next
twelve months. We need to know the WeMove team can commit for the long-term.
It’s essential we have the resources to plan ahead. <STRONG><A

<P><BIG>If someone had told us in January of this year that European countries

</STRONG>it would have been almost impossible to believe. But <STRONG>this

<P><BIG>PS: This is one of <STRONG>WeMove’s biggest-ever campaign success
