Objectives
- Allow participants to identify the different European political groupings and their connections with national political groups
- Allow participants to understand the different ways of reasoning that can affect the European vote
Description
Over the course of this activity, participants will be asked to identify the different political groups in the European Parliament, and the national parties which are linked to them. Participants will also be asked to think about national and partisan reasoning which affects our choice of European parliamentarians.
Note: We strongly recommend that you carry out the previous activity called 'French political groups' in order to be able to carry out this activity correctly, or at least that the topic of French political parties be already clear for all participants.
