Corrections at 1:21:
- Wrong logo for Portugal PSD party
- Croatian HDZ is not called New Democracy, but the Croatian Democratic Union.
- Romanian third logo (HDMZ) has the wrong party name. Party is called: Democratic Alliance of Hungarians in Romania
- Italy should also include the: South Tyrolean People's Party
- Romanian flag: The animation briefly shows the Romanian flag the wrong way around.

Thanks a lot for this video, very helpful because we don't really know europeans parties and I can't wait to see the next ones on the other parties! Keep going, from France

[olezhastanislavich]

Would be nice to hear next about Renew Europe group in Europarlament

[razvantel]

I`m interested to see a similar analysis of Renew Europe group. Thank you!

Dude. I love your schematics. Not only is the video extremely well put together and perfectly understandable on its own, but if I had any doubts, I can always return to your diagrams which sum up perfectly everything you've exposed. As a channel which aims at informing people, and for the information to be "made simple", I think this helps a lot and I really appreciate it. I hope you never keep doing them, I've even screenshot-ed some to share with my friends!!

7:40 “Our furry friends” got me puzzled for a couple of seconds 😅

From the USA, I’m excited for a future with a strong and united Europe

[KevinAdams]

Absolutely no enlargement prior to unanimity reform. It makes no sense to not have learned from past mistakes.

[Giannhsa]

less regulation " we have to trust our companies to let them do what they do best" that never went wrong ... this continent is doomed

[orktv]

Would it perhaps be possible to have some videos about parties' voting records? Manifestos are nice and all, but talk is cheap and I want to know what parties really stand for.

[pedroleuenberger]

I like their vision for the eu but I think they’re too soft on illegal migration

[Darian___]

One of the best video's yet! I'm glad to see you're planning to do the same vid for all the other fractions!

[orktv]

Sounds a bit mid. Hesitant on climate change, lack of vision on social, strong on migration, defense, and EU reform. No idea what to think of economy, probably a mixed bag that's influenced by big business interests.

[maksimromanyuk]

wow the best video i have seen about this party !!! love it very simple now i know who to vote thanks!!

[philipmilner]

The EU should haqve its books audited and balanced, before it allows new member states...

[seokjin]

The parliament can't even get rid of the Strasbourg parliamentery session boondoggle.

[troels]

Thanks for a really nice video, hope to see a similar video for each political group. Also the overview is so good, so remember to make them for each group.

[francogiobbimontesanti]

I hope you guys grow big. We need pan European media sources.

[andreavaleri]

Your breakdown is really helpful. Do you have any link for tables/charts showing Country parties to EU affiliation and bullet points for what they stand for? Keep up the great work!

Edit: the Country parties affiliation breakdown is in your video description. Thanks

[Ventiler]

Thanks for this video, great source of information.
