Dr Roberta Metsola, MEP, addressed students as part of the Institute for European Studies’ “Politics of the EU” course organised by Dr Mark Harwood. The course provides an in-depth analysis of the actors involved in EU politics and how they interact in running the Union. As part of the course, a guest speaker is invited annually to provide insight into the political dynamics surrounding their job so as to provide practical examples for the students of how the Union may operate in practice as opposed to theory.
