MEPs on a key European parliamentary committee have voted to reject the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (Acta) by 19 votes to 12.

Many regard it as the deathblow for the controversial treaty because the trade committee formally recommends how to vote to the wider parliament.

The European Parliament vote is due to take place in July.

Is this a sign of sanity breaking out in the EU?

No sanity is not breaking out in the EU just their normal ratio of one good thing to 500 bad things.
