Soviet nostalgia: Russian drink, bunker parties and film in Vilnius

Czech Republic: 'we are leaving behind the eggs and going to vote'… for the right

The new generation of the Czech right-wing is waging its political war. Its weapons are eggs and Facebook contacts. Practices of suspect ideology. The result?

The sun sets on the EU's epicentre. Thousands of workers leave their offices and an army of night time workers take their place.
