'The deal with the Greens is worrying'
Ursula von der Leyen will remain President of the European Commission thanks to winning over the Greens, much to the exasperation of farmers across the Continent who have been moved to protest against the bloc's net zero policies. pic.twitter.com/efaOAKtkYE

Pieter Cleppe, editor-in-chief of BrusselsReport.eu, discusses the European Parliament’s vote in support of a second term for Ursula von der Leyen, at GB News. He notes how the Greens in the European Parliament are triumphant, as they were crucial to safeguard Von der Leyen’s majority. As a result, there will be no changes to the EU’s “green deal”, despite the protests from farmers and industry and despite the EP election losses of those having supported these policies.
