Focus: European Elections |
Why vote at all?The EU can seem complicated. And really far away. Especially if you are living in Northern Sweden, coastal Greece or rural Latvia. The EU doesn't effect me... or does it? The website What the EU does for me impressively shows that the EU does effect all of us (available in many languages!). Love online shopping? Sports? Video gaming? Are you a single mom? Left school early? Youth worker? Find out how the EU affects you. Information is also available by region or specific topics of focus such as environmental protection and social security. Have fun discovering this very insightful website! |

How do I vote? (choose your language for information on your country) A video explaining it all can be found here. So now we know more, let's go on...
