Open Europe

Think tank with offices in London and Brussels focused on "promoting ideas for economic and political reform of the European Union"

Open Europe is described by the Economist as "the Eurosceptic group that controls British coverage of the EU". The article reads: "I am sure that well over half the stories in the British daily press on the EU are directly inspired by Open Europe press releases and tip-offs. Many of those articles are one-sided, inaccurate and verging on the hysterical."
