I was literally joking about the Netherlands offering to make New York into New Amsterdam again last week.

My wish has come true!

Well done @EUCommission ๐Ÿ‘

Love that! But the guy is a member of the EU parliament, not of the commission.

It's still EU government, right?

The EU Commission is, according to the EU's social media channel's page, the only element of the government with a presence here on Mastodon so far.

@davidaugust @nshr @EUCommission It's not the government, which would be the executive, he's member of the parliament, which is the legislative. If he would belong to the commission, this could be considered a serious statement of the EU. But from an MEP, it's just something someone does on the playground. He would need 360 more colleagues to play with him. (And the right of initiative for the parliament.)
