HTF would it have got voted through?


I don't know the system, but the fact is that most of the proposals made
by commissioners are voted through the EP "on the nod"


Really? With all those UKIP MEPs?


As I have pointed out before, even if all of (UK) MEPs ganged up to vote
against they still won't have enough votes to even be noticed let along
stand a chance of defeating a proposal


Yes. You and others keep on pointing this out. As if it was always the EU
united against the UK.

And so many on here want to see UKIP in
power in the UK?


what has that got to do with the way the 663 non-UK members vote?


Do you know what 'on the nod' means?
