LAST FEW WEEKS TO TRY EURO-QUIZ!

It is European Election time. But do you feel that you don't know enough about the EU? Or are you confident that you can take on your friends and colleagues? Do you want to become a 'virtual MEP'?

The European Parliament has launched a new 'Europa Quiz' on its website: www.europarl.eu.int.

East Midlands MEP Bill Newton Dunn has tried it and recommends it as a way of learning more about the European Union:

"You get a chance to become a virtual MEP - if you get the multiple choice question right, you get more votes! It is available in all twenty of the EU's official languages, so you can even play in Polish or Hungarian if you want to! There are also prizes available - VIP trips to the European Parliament in Strasbourg.

However, he urged people to try it out soon: "Hurry - this online quiz is only available until 13 June!"
