Our @zoyashef and @TaylorVaisey just sat down with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney where they talked about the EU-Canada summit, tech billionaires, trade deals, Brooks Brothers shirts, and even Heated Rivalry. 👉 Stay tuned: politi.co/4sEtmGk

Donald Trump mocked Democrat James Talarico this week, saying he was off the campaign trail after being “food poisoned by meat ’cause he can’t stand it.” Back in Europe, meat is also a hot topic, @pdallisonesque writes in his Declassified column 👇 politico.eu/article/got-beef…

An instant classic in the very first Madrid Playbook (and the kind of line so good you want printed on a t-shirt). Huge congrats to @anvillarino @kikeandres @mendezrafael on an incredible debut, it was well worth the wait! Already looking forward to the next editions

There's only appropriate punishment ... make them give back Elliot Anderson for nothing #nffc
A seismic day for English football. This ruling is incomparable to Everton, Forest and even Chelsea (who largely self-reported their breaches). Manchester City appear to be guilty of what is essentially corperate fraud on a mammoth scale, cheating the system by inflating commercial revenue/sponsorship payments, allowing them to become the club they are today. Its calls into question the integrity of one of the most significant and dominant Premier League champions we’ve ever seen.

The United Nations General Assembly is like Christmas with the extended family: Hours of extreme tedium, punctuated by the occasional offensive outburst or fistfight. In his Declassified column, @pdallisonesque revisits the explosive moments at UNGA 👇 politico.eu/article/boredom-…

French President Emmanuel Macron wants Europe to develop a crewed spaceflight program within a decade. But what would life in the EU even be like in 2036? @pdallisonesque imagines it in his latest Declassified column 👇 politico.eu/article/eu-in-sp…

For reasons I can't explain, I've been writing my Declassified column @POLITICOEurope for 7 years. A huge thanks if you've ever read it (even if you then emailed to ask 'is this supposed to be funny?') politico.eu/article/dont-tak…

Some drug dealers have been making ecstasy tablets shaped like the face of Donald Trump. But his likeness isn’t just appearing on narcotics. Read more in @pdallisonesque's latest Declassified column 👇 politico.eu/article/dont-tak…

EXCLUSIVE: Indian PM Narendra Modi is planning to attend the European Council summit in December. The EU and India have concluded negotiations on a trade deal but haven’t signed it yet. Could this be the moment? Great scoop to close the week by @zoyashef politico.eu/article/indian-p…

In his latest Declassified column, @pdallisonesque is launching a competition to find the most spineless creature in Europe. It is open to all cowardly politicians and also actual invertebrates. politico.eu/article/a-lack-o…
