My name's Greta. Last year, I graduated from the European Politics and Society joint master's degree, which I studied in Prague, Krakow, and Barcelona. I now find myself working at the European Parliament in Brussels (although these articles only represent my own opinion, not the Institution's).
I first started writing this blog in the midst of the first lockdown in 2020. Whilst I had been chronicling my frustrations with the British government on Facebook for several years, it was only the endless time afforded to me by the pandemic which finally inspired me to write more complete opinions pieces.
Today, this blog is an accumulation of everything I have written: my old Facebook posts, 500-word opinion pieces published on TheLatest.com, epic articles published by European Waves, and original posts made just for this blog.
It's a blog about current affairs and politics, but I have a few pet topics which I come back to regularly:
- The intersection of pop culture and politics
- The state of democracy
- Animal rights and the environment
