Jennifer Baker presents EU Tweets of the Week, looking at the good, the bad and the ugly in the European Union Twittersphere this week:

  • Most debated: in what looks like a peace offering to its creditors, Greece’s controversial finance minister Yanis Varoufakis has been sidelined from negotiations
  • The good: European Parliament approved new rules to reduce the use of plastic bags last Tuesday
  • The bad: the Single Seat Campaign is not to the taste of François Hollande i, the French President stressed that ‘Strasbourg will remain the European capital forever
  • The ugly: there is a new player in town - fake EU Commissioner for Inland Waterways and Catering Albert Kuñardocz takes questions on Twitter via the hashtag #AskBertie
