🌊🏊 Great news for 🇪🇺 swimmers!

Most EU bathing waters are clean, safe & ready to enjoy!

The latest EU bathing water report found that 85% of bathing sites achieved the highest “excellent” water quality rating, while 96% met the minimum standards 👉 https://t.co/g0Ict7JdmL

Video games providers must treat consumers fairly.

Under EU consumer law consumers must be informed about the duration and conditions of a video game’s lifespan.

If the supply is stopped earlier than the contract states, players should be reimbursed.

🚆 One journey. One ticket. Full rights.

Travelling by train across Europe can still be complicated, especially across borders and multiple providers.

We want to change that.

Our new package will make it easier ⬇️

@michaelpforan 1:1 or 1:2 is absolutely amazing! What a treat. 1:3 or 1:4 also great, in my view.

On this day in 1957, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands signed the Treaty of Rome.

They laid the foundations for today’s European Union.

United in diversity, then and now 🇪🇺

💶 Ever wondered why euro coins look the way they do? 🤔 Each coin has:

➡️ A common side designed by Luc Luycx of the Royal Belgian Mint

➡️ A national side showcasing each country’s cultural heritage

Have you seen already the design of 🇧🇬Bulgaria’s euro coins?

[Graham Butler @GrahamButler1]

Is there a political question doctrine in EU law? The CJEU long took no position.

No more! It has now discovered it.

By me: 'From Search to Discovery of the Political Question Doctrine in EU Law' in European Law Review, 2025, 50(6), pp. 761-774.
