Direct peers

• Politico Europe: Brussels-headquartered news outlet covering EU policy and politics for the same institutional and lobbying audience that The Parliament Magazine serves, including news, opinion, and a deep events portfolio. Directly comparable in product mix (digital, newsletter, events) and target customer.
• EUobserver: Independent Brussels-based news site covering EU institutions, policy, and lobbying, with subscription and membership tiers. Closely comparable as a digital-first EU affairs publication serving policy professionals and engaged citizens.
• Euractiv: Brussels-based EU policy news network covering legislation and policy debates across member states, with a syndicated network of country editions. Comparable in audience (EU policymakers, lobbyists), policy specialisation, and multi-country reach.
• POLITICO Pro: Premium subscription intelligence product from Politico Europe targeting the same EU affairs professionals as The Parliament Magazine, including policy tracking, analysis, and insider alerts. Most direct competitor to PM+ and the magazine's subscription offering.
• The House Magazine: UK Parliament-focused political magazine covering Westminster policy and politics for MPs, peers, and civil servants, published within the same Total Politics Group portfolio. Directly comparable print-plus-digital policy publication model, although UK-rather than EU-focused.
• PoliticsHome: UK political news and policy site from the same Total Politics Group portfolio, with a similar mix of news, features, and analysis targeted at Westminster policymakers. Comparable in business model (B2B political publishing) and content categories, but for UK rather than EU institutions.
• Holyrood Magazine: Scottish Parliament-focused political magazine and events platform from the same Total Politics Group portfolio, covering devolved policy and politics. Directly comparable in product mix (print magazine, events, training) and B2B political publishing model, though narrower in geography.
• Civil Service World: UK public-sector and civil service news title within the Total Politics Group, covering policy, government, and Whitehall. Comparable in targeting decision-makers in government, and in the print-plus-events-plus-training product mix.

Regional players

• The Brussels Times: English-language Brussels-based news outlet covering EU affairs and Belgian politics for an international, Brussels-based audience. Comparable geographic focus and English-language EU policy coverage, though broader in scope (Belgian politics and general news as well as EU).

Broad incumbents

• Euronews: Pan-European multilingual news broadcaster covering EU, European, and global affairs from a Brussels-anchored base. Overlaps with The Parliament Magazine in EU policy coverage but operates at a much larger scale and broader consumer audience.
