 | European Elections - Set for 4 June |
 |
The elections to the European Parliament are to be held on 4 June 2009.
I think it is fair to suggest that there has been some apathy about these elections in the past. However, provided we elect the right candidates it is they who are at the forefront in trying to help negotiate and agree policies which take account of the British interest. As Brussels expands its scope this role becomes increasing important.
The six Conservative candidates for the South West Region, in order of priority (dictated by prior selection by senior officers throughout the Region e.g. me) are:-
1. Giles Chichester MEP; 2. Julie Girling; 3. Ashley Fox; 4. Michael Dolley; 5. Don Collier; 6. Zehra Zaidi
Giles Chichester has been unequivocally cleared of the accusations of impropriety in his funding arrangements and I have seen a letter from the Secretary General of the EU stating this.
