Reading has always been part of my life, says MEP Jörg Leichtfried for Get Caught Reading

“Reading has always been part of my life, be it at work or for personal pleasure. The book I am currently reading combines both: Martin Schulz’ book Der gefesselte Riese, which draws a somewhat discomforting but very realistic view of the current state of the European Union. At the same time it presents a way out of the crisis: We need real democracy and solidarity in Europe and we have to defend our social achievements with confidence and vigour. I can only recommend this book to everyone interested in the European Union and I hope that you enjoy reading it as much as I do.”
