Who are the satirical parties of EU politics?

In the latest episode of our daily podcast, Today in the EU, we take a look at the satirical parties that have emerged on Europe's political scene.

The European Union isn't exactly known for fun and games, but there are some unexpected players who bring a more light-hearted approach to politics. They are political parties originally founded as jokes that have somehow managed to find a road to the European Parliament.

We invited Max Griera, Euractiv’s network journalist, to tell us more about who these parties are, what their story is, and what impact they could have on European politics.
