Hello, I'm Stephen Carroll.

I'm in Brussels, where many of Europe's biggest decisions get made.

We're up early every weekday, keeping an eye on what's happening across Europe and around the world.

From Brussels, I'm following the politics, policy and the people shaping the European Union right now.

We've got reporters across Europe and around the globe feeding in as stories break.

It's smart, calm and to the point.
