Game time: State of the Union bingo

Ursula von der Leyen’s State of the Union speech is one of the big set-piece events in the EU political calendar — and what better way to mark the occasion than to play a fun game?

So switch on EBS, pour yourself a strong coffee (maybe with a shot of rum in it), and enjoy a game of State of the Union bingo. If you get a full line of correct answers, please stand on the roof of your office block/house and shout “bingo!” really loudly.

LP Staff Writers

Writers at Lord’s Press come from a range of professional backgrounds, including history, diplomacy, heraldry, and public administration. Many publish anonymously or under initials—a practice that reflects the publication’s long-standing emphasis on discretion and editorial objectivity. While they bring expertise in European nobility, protocol, and archival research, their role is not to opine, but to document. Their focus remains on accuracy, historical integrity, and the preservation of events and individuals whose significance might otherwise go unrecorded.
