🔍️ We recently rolled out several improvements for search! We now catch common misspellings and suggest alternative search terms for when there are no or very limited results. Additionally, we now maintain a list of synonyms for search, so that "corona" also yields the results for "covid".

🗳️ You can also leave feedback for us directly after searching - as usual: Please do that, especially when you did not find anything or not what you wanted to find! We read all the feedback and try to reach out when we act on it!

(That also means you can finally search for "chat control" and find what you were looking for.)

🎉 We are now including information on the national parties of MEPs in all of our data! 🔍️ While the focus in the EP mostly is on the political groups, these contain members of many different national parties: A 🇩🇪 EPP MEP might be a member of the CDU, a 🇫🇷 RENEW MEP might be a member of Rennaisance.

📎 National parties are also included in our bulk data export and the API: All party memberships since 2019, for all MEPs in term 9 and 10. For each vote, the correct party memberships is precomputed, for a worry-free analysis!

First, the EP resolution on hybrid attacks and the instrumentalisation of migration in Ceuta passed with EPP, ECR, PfE and ESN support. But this was not a simple left–right split: Renew was divided, and Spanish polarisation was uploaded into European group politics. Data from @howtheyvote.eu:

The vote today in the EP on Ceuta was another case of the EPP voting together with the far-right (via @howtheyvote.eu). It was also a vote the EPP claimed showing a divide 'between those for stand for a strong Union' with EPP and far-right groups together on one side.

💡 We now highlight when a vote is on a "motion to reject" a proposal - in these cases, the semantics of voting in favor/against are flipped, which caused some confusion in the past. Example: howtheyvote.eu/votes/196482

Motions to reject have been more and more common over the last few months, where we often had a motion to reject from the far-right and then another vote on the motion itself. This change should make these easier to interpret - let us know what you think!

🗳️ Another day of votes in the European Parliament #plenary is up!

🚨 Tomorrow will be interesting for everyone looking at how conservatives and the far-right behave: We'll have votes on a resolution on the recent "migration crisis" in Ceuta. Right now, 7 resolutions are tabled; only joint motion comes from Greens & the Left group. @nvondarza.bsky.social

🐛 European Parliament's plenary is in session this week - but votes are **not** up on our site! We are facing a technical problem that won't be fixed Immediately due to complexity and our resources. We have workarounds in mind and post here when things run again. Votes will be backfilled.

For the curious: The EP website starting blocking automated requests. This was already happening to specific runners before, but now all our machines are impacted. Ironically, this also applies to data that is by definition intended to be read by machines.
