In December 2010, the mysterious Brusselsleaks website appeared. The idea was simple: Think of wikileaks in a EU/Brussels context. Now BrusselsLeaks is back with a new website and a new logo! Well, the logo is rather basic and it looks like the Ukrainian flag turned upside down. A couple of weeks ago we wrote a lenghty [...]

A couple of months ago we all complained that there is no tool for tracking MEP votes in the European Parliament. The times have changed and we now have literally a multitude of different websites that deal with the issue. VoteWatch.eu, announced already a while ago, was finally launched today. It is quite a complex [...]
Anyone interested in European affairs would find it very useful. That is, if they can find it.
