  • European Parliament Elections 2014 RESEARCH PAPER 14/32 11 June 2014
    European Parliament Elections 2014 RESEARCH PAPER 14/32 11 June 2014 Elections to the European Parliament were held across the 28 states of the European Union between 22 and 25 May 2014. The UK elections were held concurrently with council elections in England and Northern Ireland on 22 May. The UK now has 73 MEPs, up from 72 at the last election, distributed between 12 regions. UKIP won 24 seats, Labour 20, the Conservatives 19, and the Green Party three. The Liberal Democrats won only one seat, down from 11 at the 2009 European election. The BNP lost both of the two seats they had won for the first time at the previous election. UKIP won the popular vote overall, and in six of the nine regions in England. Labour won the popular vote in Wales and the SNP won in Scotland. Across the UK as a whole turnout was 35%. Across Europe there was an increase in the number of seats held by Eurosceptic parties, although more centrist parties in established pro-European groups were still in the majority. The exact political balance of the new Parliament depends on the formation of the political groups. Turnout across the EU was 43%. It was relatively low in some of the newer Member States. Part 1 of this paper presents the full results of the UK elections, including regional analysis and local-level data. Part 2 presents a summary of the results across the EU, together with country-level summaries based on data from official national sources.

  • The European Elections and Brexit Foreword
    The European Elections and Brexit Foreword There is a certain irony that the upcoming set of European elections will be the most scrutinized, most keenly watched and most thoroughly dissected ever in the UK. It remains far from certain any of those elected will ever make the journey on the Eurostar from St Pancras to Brussels as members of the European Parliament. However, these elections are undoubtedly significant: for the EU as a whole, and for Brexit and the future of British politics. This report represents our attempt to explain why and to spell out for those interested what to look out for when the elections take place. In what follows, we bring together some of the best minds working on Brexit and the EU. The report is intended as a guide to the vote later this month, rather than an attempt to predict the outcome of an inherently unpredictable set of elections. I believe it makes an original and timely contribution and I hope you find it both useful and interesting. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Sara Hobolt in putting this report together. Special thanks to the ever patient, creative, understanding and brilliant Richard Linnett. Matt Bevington, Liam Hill, Alan Wager and John-Paul Salter all proofed and checked the various contributions. Navjyot Lehl who coordinated the whole enterprise with her customary efficiency and (sometimes) good humour. Professor Anand Menon Director, The UK in a Changing Europe Hyperlinks to cited material can be found online at www.UKandEU.ac.uk 2 May 2019 The UK in a Changing Europe promotes rigorous, high-quality and independent research into the complex and ever changing relationship between the UK and the EU.

Paisley Simpson Foster Wilson www.dup2win.com 3 Manifesto2005 PARLIAMENTARY AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT ELECTIONS INTRODUCTION: For the first time in a generation unionism has leadership that’s working. Just remember what it was like only eighteen months ago when the Ulster Unionist Party was in charge. Republicans won concession after concession while unionism was in retreat. In every negotiation republicans exploited the weakness of the UUP and were allowed to dictate t heir own terms. Now,all that has changed.Today it is the DUP’s agenda that dominates the political process with London, Dublin and Washington accepting our demands as fundamental prerequisites. The pan-nationalist front has been fractured and Sinn Fein is more isolated than ever before.
