#TheSchumanShow Join our favourite EU spokesperson, Margaritis Funkyboogaloo-Smythe, as he brings you another edition of the Midday Briefing! The Schuman Show always brings you a quick rundown of what's been going on in politics and how the EU chose to respond.

In this Midday Briefing, the EU spokesperson discusses the most recent things affecting the European Union. First off, the European Commission congratulates Germany on its election results. Friedrich Merz is the new chancellor, replacing the outgoing Olaf Scholz, who is known to have succesfully done... things... while in office. Across the Atlantic, the US government continues to be an inspiration to us all. Elon Musk heads up the Department of Government Efficiency, and the EU wonders if it should implement something like that, too? In any case, the Commission has identified several areas of inefficiency. In other matters, the EU is quite indifferent to the US interest in Greeland, and is debating whether it should change the name of the Schuman roundabout. Watch now!

✨With Paul Dallison.
