Europeanparliamentelections20 European Parliament Elections 2019 Eastern Region MEP Candidate Lists – Correct at 30 April 2019 The Eastern Region elects 7 MEPs, on a party list system, using a proportional voting system known as d’Hondt (after the mathematician who designed it). Electors vote for a single party, not for a candidate. Votes are counted in a series of rounds, and each time the first listed candidate for the winning party is elected. See below. On polling as at 27 April (YouGov) the Eastern Region would elect: 3 Brexit Party 2 Labour 1 Conservative 1 Change UK The asterisked candidates are likely to be elected. The full official list is at https://www.uttlesford.gov.uk/media/9233/Statement-of-Parties-and- Individual-Candidates-Nominated-and-Notice-of-Poll-European-Parliamentary-Election-Thursday-23- May-2019/pdf/Statement_of_Parties_and_Individual_Candidates_Nominated.pdf Full list also available on BBC website at https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-48081343 My annotated list is below Sitting MEPs emboldened.

All parties are listed in descending order of size. Round 1, the party with the most votes gets the first seat, allocated to the first candidate on their list. That party’s original vote total is then divided by the number of seats won (1) plus one = 2 Round 2, the list is resorted and the party with the most votes gets the second seat. That party’s original vote total is divided by the number of seats won plus one. Rounds 3-7 repeat. Example – using YouGov poll data for Midlands and East Region from 27 April Round 1 Brexit wins with 31% of votes, their score is reduced to 31/1+1 = 15.5 Round 2 Labour wins with 24% of votes, their score is reduced to 24/1+1 = 12 Round 3 Brexit wins again with 15.5%, their score is reduced by 31/2+1 = 10.3 Round 4 Conservative wins with 14%, their score is reduced to 14/1+1 = 7 Round 5 Labour wins on 12%, their score is reduced by 24/2+1 = 8 Round 6 Change wins with 11% Round 7 Brexit wins with 10.3% Final result 3 Brexit, 2 Labour, 1 Conservative, 1 Change UK. .

In the United Kingdom, the election for the country’s 73 Members of the European Parliament will be held on Thursday 22 May 2014. The elections come at a crucial junction for UK-EU relations, and are likely to have far-reaching consequences for the UK’s relationship with the rest of Europe: a surge in support for the UK Independence Party (UKIP) could lead to a Britain that is increasingly dis-engaged from the EU policy-making process. In parallel, the current UK Government is also conducting a review of the EU’s powers and Prime Minister David Cameron has repeatedly pushed for a ‘repatriation’ of powers from the European to the national level. These long-term political developments aside, the elections will also have more direct and tangible consequences.

  • The 'Today' Programme's Coverage of the 2019
    THE BBC AND BREXIT THE ‘TODAY’ PROGRAMME’S COVERAGE OF THE 2019 EUROPEAN PARLIAMENTARY ELECTION 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This survey assesses coverage by BBC Radio 4’s Today programme of the European Parliamentary elections between April 12 and May 30, 2019. The volume of EU material was 28.5% of feature time, indicating the importance of the Brexit debate on the news agenda. This amounted to a third of a million words of transcripts. Standout points include: Pro-Brexit opinion was overwhelmingly swamped by those who wanted to avoid ‘no deal’. Speakers had only minimal time to express their views and presenters were not much interested in exploring the potential benefits of Brexit, but rather alleged malpractice or prejudice by pro-Brexit parties and spokesmen. The treatment of anti-Brexit figures was generally much more favourable. After the results of the poll, for example, presenters barely challenged assertions by Remain parties that they had ‘won’ (on a combined basis) the election. By contrast, Sir William Cash – brought on the programme to justify why he had described the government’s negotiating approach as ‘appeasement’ – was questioned by Nick Robinson as if his behaviour was verging on the criminal. Business News – a significant daily chunk of the Today programme – was heavily dominated by contributors who were against ‘no deal’, determined to push as hard as possible the scale of the disruption that would ensue, and who saw almost every negative business development as being the outcome of Brexit uncertainty. The perceived opportunities of Brexit were scarcely explored Almost 500 speakers (487) contributed to the Today coverage.

  • Democratic Audit: European Elections 2019: What Will Happen in the East of England Region? Page 1 of 6
    Democratic Audit: European elections 2019: what will happen in the East of England region? Page 1 of 6 European elections 2019: what will happen in the East of England region? Traditionally this is a Conservative region at Westminster elections. Yet the East of England is strongly Eurosceptic and UKIP came top here in the last European Parliament elections in 2014, although the Tories hung on (just) to three seats. The Brexit Party now look certain to take over the UKIP vote and comfortably come first: on current polls they are guaranteed three of the region’s seven seats, and possibly one more. The latest polling indicates that Labour and the Liberal Democrats look assured of a single seat each. So the main uncertainty hangs on just how dominant the Brexit Party vote will be, whether the Tories’ slump means that they lose all of their seats here, and whether the Greens can pick up a seat. With voters able to cast only a single vote for a party list, the Democratic Audit team reviews likely outcomes for the parties and the main potentially electable candidates. Norwich cathedral. Picture: MemoryCatcher / 3041 images The East of England region juts into the North Sea and covers East Anglia down to the northern fringes of London. People here voted 56.5% to 43.5% for Leave in the Brexit referendum. Yet the area also includes some anti-Brexit cities such as Norwich and Cambridge. Last time UKIP won 35% of the vote and gained three MEPs (two of whom subsequently defected to other parties).
