    CHOOSE EUROPE! JOIN FOR THE OPENING OF THE NEW EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT! 1st of July 2019 | Strasbourg, France Citizens’ Agora European Youth Centre Strasbourg 30, rue Pierre de Coubertin, 67000 A new Parliament for a new Europe European Parliamentary Association 76 Allée de la Robertsau, 67000 2nd of July 2019 | Strasbourg, France Rally In front of the European Parliament 1 Avenue du Président Robert Schuman INTRODUCTION We have a newly elected Europe Parliament. It should become the front-runner in promoting a new Europe. Join us in Strasbourg for the opening session on 1-2 July to voice our demands for a more democratic, more social, more federal - a sovereign Europe! We are organising a 2 days bus trip from Brussels. The European Union has been “at a critical junction” for far too long. Radical reforms of the Euro, unity on security and defence, European democracy are urgently needed. Meanwhile Brexit looms, nationalism is on the rise, and citizens are puzzled on what Europe brings and where it is heading to. The next term of the European Parliament will be crucial to put Europe on a new course. The history of the European Union is one of citizens gathering and calling on elected leaders for more decisive steps towards political unity for the European people. Join us in Strasbourg to show that citizens support a federal Europe and engage with federalist members of the European Parliament on how to promote federalist goals in the newly elected Parliament. EU national leaders have failed us. European integration by intergovernmental cooperation has the EU stuck in a status quo that could well be its downfall.

  • OPENING PANDORA's BOX David Cameron's Referendum Gamble On
    OPENING PANDORA’S BOX David Cameron’s Referendum Gamble on EU Membership Credit: The Economist. By Christina Hull Yale University Department of Political Science Adviser: Jolyon Howorth April 21, 2014 Abstract This essay examines the driving factors behind UK Prime Minister David Cameron’s decision to call a referendum if the Conservative Party is re-elected in 2015. It addresses the persistence of Euroskepticism in the United Kingdom and the tendency of Euroskeptics to generate intra-party conflict that often has dire consequences for Prime Ministers. Through an analysis of the relative impact of political strategy, the power of the media, and British public opinion, the essay argues that addressing party management and electoral concerns has been the primary influence on David Cameron’s decision and contends that Cameron has unwittingly unleashed a Pandora’s box that could pave the way for a British exit from the European Union. Acknowledgments First, I would like to thank the Bates Summer Research Fellowship, without which I would not have had the opportunity to complete my research in London. To Professor Peter Swenson and the members of The Senior Colloquium, Gabe Botelho, Josh Kalla, Gabe Levine, Mary Shi, and Joel Sircus, who provided excellent advice and criticism. To Professor David Cameron, without whom I never would have discovered my interest in European politics. To David Fayngor, who flew halfway across the world to keep me company during my summer research. To my mom for her unwavering support and my dad for his careful proofreading. And finally, to my adviser Professor Jolyon Howorth, who worked with me on this project for over a year and a half.

    GENERAL SECRETARY‟S REPORT ANNUAL CONGRESS 2014 Capital FM Arena, Nottingham CONGRESS – SUNDAY 8 JUNE - MONDAY 9 JUNE 9.30 am - 12.30 pm, 2.00 pm - 5.30 pm CONGRESS – WEDNESDAY 11 JUNE 9.30 am - 12.30 pm, 2.00 pm - 5.30 pm CONGRESS – THURSDAY 12 JUNE 9.30 am – close of business PAGE LEFT INTENTIONALLY BLANK 2 GENERAL SECRETARY‟S INTRODUCTION Dear Colleagues A very warm welcome to the 2014 Congress here in the wonderful city of Nottingham. On behalf of our President, the one and only Mary Turner and our outstanding Vice-President Malcolm Sage, the Executive Council and the Senior Management Team we all hope you have an enjoyable week. GMB Congress is the process of reviewing what we have achieved during the past year and renewing our goals for the years ahead. During the last ten years our GMB has gone from the verge of being swallowed up by predator Unions to a feared opponent whose strengths are built on solid finances and a renewed hunger for the Social Justice which brought our Union into existence some 125 years ago. The GMB doesn't lurch from side to side either Industrially or Politically. Our values are constant. Our members interests are the Union's interests. In recent years we have led the charge on campaigns like Private Equity asset strippers, Standards for Care Home residents and staff, exposing Blacklisting and the scandal surrounding the Housing Benefit bill where billions end up in the off shore tax havens of fat cat Landlords instead of being used to Build the homes we need to house so many families and single people who are struggling under the Thatcher legacy which saw our National Housing Stock sold off and never replaced.

All rights reserved. 1 | 18 European Parliament Elections 2014 1.0 Introduction This briefing is part of DeHavilland EU’s Foresight Report series on the 2014 European elections and provides a preliminary overview of the candidates standing in the UK for election to the European Parliament in 2014. 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.

  • 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.

  • Mercyhurst Magazine
    tsA VOL. 21, ISSUE 1 NOVEMBER 2004 -from fKe. Editor It happens every year. That moment of clarity when I realize how much work behind the scenes has been necessary to fuel Mercyhurst on a day-to-day basis, laying the foundation for this institution to evolve into exactly what it has become. Sometimes it strikes me when the finishing touches are being discussed at a planning meeting for com­ mencement, usually only days before the celebration begins and hundreds of family members flood through the Gates. Sometimes it happens as I look out over the crowds gathered for the annual Fourth of July event hosted by Mercyhurst College, knowing that our maintenance and security staffs have been on the clock for hours, and have little to no hope of going home any time soon. Sometimes I am simply walking across our beautiful campus when I start thinking about the people who keep the windows clean, the weeds pulled, our students in the right class with the right professor, and the freshmen snuggled safely in their residence halls (and the RIGHT residence hall to boot). I consider the students who dedicate hours organizing and supporting events such as Christmas on Campus, the college's March of Dimes WalkAmerica team and fund-raisers like Rotoracfs 5K run. The thought always brings a smile to my face, a mix of pride and awe at what we achieve every single day. To be honest, this year it took on new significance when, as a novice homeowner, I realized anew how much effort is invested in keeping our campus functioning.
