I have become a fan of 24 year old Sarah from Cornwall. The other day someone at work sent me the link to her video “UK & EU Date” which I really liked.
Basically it starts with her looking through the personal ads of a newspaper where she eventually stumbles across a “strong, protective, multi-cultural entrepreneur who loves travel…”We now move to a restaurant where the aspiring suitor “EU” (someone with an European flag on their face) tries to woo Sarah with his “love of travel, different cultures, European projects…” The best part of the script is when Sarah asked the EU if he is “out for a meaningful relationship or just all that you can get”.
Anyway, I thought it a triumph of improvisation and just the type of short film that really works. It’s a blend of healthy scepticism with a some positive reasons why Britain should be in the Union.
She has also done a a few other videos with the intended aim of finding out what the EU “is all about” prior to the European elections. I especially like the one where she goes out and asks people about their identifies and unearths many compatible labels – “British”, “European” and “Cornish”.
If people are to really get interested and motivated by the European election then it will need a few more people like Sarah to go out and find out what’s going on.





thanks very much, great information. Keep up the great work.
