Current Affairs Czechs discuss future of European Union on 50th anniversary

The European Union marks its 50th birthday this weekend with a huge party in Berlin, but for some there's little to celebrate. The secrecy surrounding the Declaration of Berlin - which will set out the future direction of the EU - has angered several members, including the Czech Republic. So just how far has the EU come, and where should it go next? Rob Cameron invited two people with very different views on EU integration to discuss just that - Tomas Jirsa, a young centre-right activist and adviser to Prague's mayor Pavel Bem, and Martin Shabu, from the Czech NGO Yes for Europe.
