The European Parliament is getting hot and sweaty, and it’s not because of the upcoming EU budget negotiations.
The air-conditioning system in Zone C of the Paul-Henri Spaak building in Brussels, home to staff from the Greens, the liberals of Renew Europe, and the right-wing European Conservatives and Reformists, has malfunctioned.
The affected parties appear to be taking it in good humor, at least.
“It hasn’t been this overheated since [European Commission President Ursula] von der Leyen cut the green claims stuff!” quipped a Renew spokesperson, referring to last week’s political turmoil over the Commission’s mixed messaging on whether it would kill an anti-greenwashing bill.
