Euros on Youtube II... and more

Saturday, 30 May 2009

We posted a few Youtube videos this day last week relating to the Euro elections. During our internet rambling over the last few days we found a few more - some of them are, eh, rather ‘unique’.

Here are a few videos from the official European Parliament Youtube account –

First one, “You Decide Tomorrow’s Headlines”, there’s an Irish accent or two in there….

 

Up second is a behind the scenes look at the campaign that brought you the two huge packaged chickens on Dame Street in Dublin.

And lastly, a rather better produced video with a stronger subject matter…

 

Just getting away from Youtube briefly, a non-partisan, non-profit Europe-wide initiative has been set up to get “Euro politics junkies” from all 27 member states debating on the future of the European Union. These writers may help you get a more rounded view of the issues that shape how Europe develops. If you’re looking for a more local perspective, see the reporters from Youth Media Europe’s blog posts right here on RTE.ie there is an interesting post over there called “Are you smarter than a ten year old?”.

We’ll be back on Monday.

Remember, our Euro elections special is on Tuesday night and we want your videos. We’ve had many emails and Twitter comments so far but the videos aren’t quite so forthcoming. It would be a pity if we couldn’t put some videos from the public directly to candidates. So if you’ve got a webcam, record your observations and email a link to primetime@rte.ie

Have a good weekend.
