- Over 800 highly-energised “Volters” from over twenty countries rocked up to the Prague Congress Centre on 8 October. I was there to moderate two policy discussion sessions, but I spent most of my time getting to know the members of Volt, and exploring the party culture of this new form of European politics.
Many thanks to Lucas Kornexl and the Volt Europa board for inviting me to attend the General Assembly!

Thank you to everyone at Volt Europa who took part in this video, either by being interviewed on camera, or helping me during my time as a moderator, or just by putting on such a superbly organized event!
Great vlog, Fredo! Thanks for taking us with you! 🤗 The Volters seem like a lovely bunch, respectful protesters, with a lot of love for people outside their own borders. I was a bit surprised that they were not as eccentric as I might have expected. Afterall, small parties are often driven by whacky self-obsessed ideologues, to keep their movement going. But this seemed about as civil and engaged as it can get! Great stuff :)
Glad you liked the video and thanks so much for your comment, Lucas! You make a really good point, and I'm surprised this hasn't occurred to me before. In many ways Volt feels more like a major party in its demeanor, except one that is still small in number and is run by its youth activists. People were having fun everywhere, but it was also very respectful and serious when it came to policy discussions.
@@FredoRockwell it's because theyre all highly educated
Great video Fredo :) really interesting insights from all the Volt members. I am also keen to seen how they do in 2024.
Thanks Luke! I'm keen to see that too, but I'm also keen to see your next video. I've got the bell on!
@@FredoRockwell haha thanks. Next week Sunday ;)
Don't be "keen", participate!!! Where are you from?? I'm 101% sure there's a Volt branch whatever country you live in!!!
There is, but I'm active in another party at the moment. 🙂
@@FredoRockwell I was talking to the other account, but now i'm curious, what party ate you working for??👀
Thanks for joining us and the nice video!
Really love the music in it as well.
Hope to see you in Bucharest? Maybe this time you come party with us? ;)
Thanks Fabian, and thanks for appearing in the video!
I'd love to come to Bucharest, but no promises about clubbing till 5am! :D
So happy I was at this event! I didn't get to speak to you in person but maybe at the next one in Bucharest :)
I'd love to come to Bucharest - if I'm the please say hello!

Prague is such a beautiful city. I want to visit one day. Great video man

Hey :) Great video !! That gives a faithful idea of the energy and the chronology within the GA. Would like to contribute by proposing french subtitles :)
I'm so glad you liked it! And I would love French subtitles if you're interested. If you contact me via email (the address is in the About section on my channel page) I will send you the English version you can work from. I would really love that!
Would be very nice and most, I repeat, most useful for all coming elections.
@@FredoRockwell Great! I just sent you an email!
Very nice and interesting video🙂
Thanks! I'm glad your liked it!
Hello? Based department?
Thanks for watching and for commenting! I have to confess, I find the word "based" really confusing. I think you're saying you liked the video - if so, thanks! - but I'm not sure....
Hello Tcoc,
. Can you tell me what you mean?
And what means Tcoc?
Interesting and nice video, maybe for better understanding subtitling?
I'm glad your liked it! I've got English subtitles and I'm happy to add translations of anyone wants to translate them for me. 😀
@@FredoRockwell
I meant subtitles in English
I DON'T LIKE THESE SEALING MOVEMENTS🤮🤮
What's a "sealing movement?!"
@@FredoRockwell never heard the term either. TY for sharing mate! 🏳️🌈💜🤞🏼
