The Lisbon Treaty, signed in 2009, gave the European Parliament greater power in EU Idecision-making and an increased role in selecting and approving the European Commission. As a result, this year’s European election has a greater democratic influence than ever before. With this in mind, AmCham EU has published The European Parliament Made Simple to explain the Parliament’s expanded powers and roles, for both the Brussels policy community and public affairs professionals in the EU and US.

  • General Election 2015 Candidate Views on Shooting Sports & Firearms Ownership
    General Election 2015 Candidate Views on Shooting Sports & Firearms Ownership Firearms UK is an Association campaigning for the protection of firearms ownership within the UK. Primary objectives are to encourage unity and positive action within the shooting community and to promote and defend individual firearms ownership and the shooting sports. In the lead up to the 2015 General Election we canvased the parliamentary candidates for their views on shooting sports and firearms ownership. We sent an email questionnaire asking seven questions; 1. Do you believe in a total ban on private firearms ownership? 2. Do you believe that private firearms ownership should face greater restrictions? 3. Do you believe the current system is balanced/there is no need for change? 4. Do you support all forms of currently legal shooting in the UK? (If there are exceptions please state) 5. Would you oppose any moves to further restrict private firearms ownership/use in the UK? 6. Do you believe that our firearms laws are in need of reformation and sensible relaxation? 7. If you support UK citizen’s rights to participate in shooting sports do you also support changing the law to permit .22 rimfire pistols to be used for competitive shooting thus allowing ordinary UK citizens to properly train to enable them to compete in international events such as the Olympic and Commonwealth games? We obtained a database of candidate’s details from www.yournextmp.com. The database contained email addresses for 3361 of the 3969 candidates listed. Unfortunately, 183 of these email addresses were incorrect. We managed to correct some of these and sent a follow up email to the candidates.

  • European Parliament Elections 2009 RESEARCH PAPER 09/53 17 June 2009
    European Parliament Elections 2009 RESEARCH PAPER 09/53 17 June 2009 Elections to the European Parliament were held across the 27 states of the European Union between 4 and 7 June 2009. The UK elections were held concurrently with the county council elections in England on 4 June. The UK now has 72 MEPs, down from 78 at the last election, distributed between 12 regions. The Conservatives won 25 seats, both UKIP and Labour 13 and the Liberal Democrats 11. The Green Party held their two seats, while the BNP won their first two seats in the European parliament. Labour lost five seats compared with the comparative pre-election position. The Conservatives won the popular vote overall, and every region in Great Britain except the North East, where Labour won, and Scotland, where the SNP won. UKIP won more votes than Labour. UK turnout was 34.5%. Across Europe, centre-right parties, whether in power or opposition, tended to perform better than those on the centre-left. The exact political balance of the new Parliament depends on the formation of Groups. The UK was not alone in seeing gains for far-right and nationalistic parties. Turnout across the EU was 43%. It was particularly 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 summary results of the results across the EU, together with country-level summaries based on data from official national sources.

They were soon joined by Poland’s Law and Justice Party and, following the European elections in June 2009, the European Conservatives and Reformists Group was born. It pledged to challenge the status quo in the European Parliament, where deals were often struck by a handful of party leaders behind closed doors. Not surprisingly our political opponents tried to block us, predicting that the ECR could not last. They were wrong. To the surprise and chagrin of many in Brussels, we emerged from the 2014 elections as the Parliament’s third largest group with 70 MEPs from 15 different member states and myself as chairman.

  • The Cotonou Agreement Between the European Union and ACP States and the End of the Lomé Convention
    Third World Quarterly, Vol 24, No 1, pp 161–176, 2003 Co-operation and coercion? The Cotonou Agreement between the European Union and ACP states and the end of the Lomé Convention STEPHEN R HURT ABSTRACT The Cotonou Agreement, signed on 23 June 2000, defines the new relationship between the European Union (EU) and the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) states. It was the result of 18 months of negotiations to decide the future of EU–ACP relations after the Lomé Convention’s expiry on 29 February 2000. This article highlights the significant changes represented by the Cotonou Agreement and emphasises some of the dangers that may result for the ACP states. In doing so, the article adopts a neo-Gramscian perspective showing how the nature of the new EU–ACP agreement has significantly shifted the relationship further from one of co-operation to one of coercion. The new approach taken by the EU can be understood within the context of the hegemonic dominance of neoliberalism within political elites. This is most explicitly demonstrated by the EU’s major justification for the proposed changes: the need to comply with the core principles and rules of the World Trade Organization (WTO). The European Union (EU) has a long history of development co-operation with the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) states.1 It is a key area within EU external relations and makes Europe a significant actor within the wider realm of North–South relations. The EU is now a major aid provider and the ACP states are heavily reliant on EU markets for their exports.

Pursuant to Article 3 of the Code of Conduct for Members of the European Parliament with respect to financial interests and con- flicts of interest, “A conflict of interest exists where a Member of the European Parliament has a personal interest that could improperly influence the performance of his or her duties as a Member.”1 We express the belief that any MEP in the pay of commercial organisations directly or indirectly involved in influenc- ing EU decision making, at the best will not be perceived as maintaining “disinterest” (“disinterest” being one of the Guiding Principles in Article 1 of the Code) and at worst may actually come under commercial influence. In this report we highlight the risk of actual or perceived conflicts of interest developing and call for changes to the Code including a complete ban on side jobs with companies or groups involved in EU lobbying.
