Socialists and Democrats

Welcome to the official Youtube Channel of the Socialists & Democrats Group in the European Parliament. 

Who we are:
The Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists & Democrats in the European Parliament (S&D Group) is the 2nd largest political group in the Parliament, with 146 members from 25 EU member states, currently chaired by Iratxe García Pérez.

Mission:
The S&D Group stands for an inclusive European society based on principles of freedom, equality, solidarity, diversity and fairness.

Our MEPs are committed to fighting for social justice, jobs and growth, consumer rights, sustainable development, financial market reform and human rights to create a stronger and more democratic Europe and a better future for everyone.

In today's times of crisis, the S&D Group's priority is to fight unemployment and ensure that our societies and markets become fairer. We want to give people back trust in the EU and hope for their future.
