My report got adopted, a big win for sustainable farming in Europe!

The European Parliament voted with a 90,8% majority to accelerate the approval and uptake of biocontrols.

More biodiversity in the countryside, less harmful chemicals in our food and water!

This could be the future!

Let’s take women security seriously, also online!

Riots in the streets, politicians intimidated, Nazi salutes on display…

We cannot normalise this. Politicians must not amplify or exploit such voices for political gain. Fundamental rights -women’s, LGBTQI, or minority rights - are exactly that: fundamental, and not up for debate.

Migrants aren’t the ones killing women. Most femicides are by (ex)partners or men close to them.

Let’s name the real problem and end femicide! 🗣️

Calling all young farmers! 👩‍🌾🧑‍🌾

Last year I got the chance to speak to so many of you. I was so inspired by your energy, creativity, and purpose. One thing is clear to me: the status quo is not an option

Love has won in Hungary! 100.000+ marched for love, freedom and equal rights. 🌈

History is written. The future will be brighter. ✊🏼

Special appreciation for the mayor Karacsony Gergely who was so brave to make this beautiful pride happen!

If Europe is serious about peace in Gaza, it must put its money where its mouth is

Europe must speak as one and finally use the leverage we have on Netanyahu’s government: Suspend the EU-Israel association, stop supplying European weapons, and prosecute all those accused of war crimes.

I spoke about the oppression of women in Iran with two activists 🇮🇷
It was a powerful reminder that, even in the face of oppression, women are leading the way, standing up and speaking out. 

Women’s rights are rights and I stand with those fighting for them.

I absolutely loved getting to experience a small glimpse of life as a farmer, working at the Waaistap with Noortje and Nico. It was a long way to go for a city girl working in Brussels!

Happy Europe day all!

80 years after the end of World War 2 in Europe, there is still so much more we can do for peace 🕊️
 
On this day we rightfully remember all those who brought an end to fascism in Europe. But we should remember that 'Never Again' is not a prayer to the past, but a promise to the future

Italy is going for it: an illegal return hub in Albania.

But people aren’t packages we can just send out of the EU.

Even if it would be legal, this should never become the norm.

Can I solve the European labour crisis with Lego?

Europe is facing an acute shortage of workers with over 4 million job vacancies across the continent. We can solve this with upskilling and retraining, bringing more women into the workforce and yes- attracting talent from abroad.

Guilty! Marine Le Pen will not be able to run for office in the next five years.

This is not anti-democratic or a conspiracy- it just shows that nobody is above the law

Do you even lift bro? 🏋️‍♀️
