EU website says its down to individual member states rules but can't find anything further than that I don't know for sure but I think it looks like the party for whom they were elected get to replace them with the next on their list - that seems to be what happened when Roger Hellmer 'retired' as an MEP at the end of July 2017 and was replaced by Jonathan Bullock (both Kippers - at the time). If they just resign the party whip, though, it looks like they can carry on as independents.

Seat68 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 (edited) If Labour are frustrating the will of the people, but Tories for a ruse infiltrated the Labour Party to elect Corbyn.

Imagine if they found out about the £10 billion they pay annually to subsidise Northern Ireland. That is money that could be pumped into the NHS – or, better yet, spent on erecting a giant poppy in the Channel, so that England never has to look at France again. Sort of speaks for itself, really. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a withdrawal agreement that specifies the terms of our departure. We now get to argue for the next decade about what happens next. And it's not going to be pretty. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
