A Euro-Election Vote for the Lib Dems is a Vote for the Environment
The European Election on the 22nd of May is to elect the MEPs who will provide influence over EU policy for the next five years. Why it matters to you who is an MEP! 1) Biggest Influence: Liberal Democrat MEPs are members of the influential ALDE Group, the third largest of the eight Groups in the European Parliament. In contrast to the completely inactive UKIP MEPs or the Conservative MEPs buried in their fringe Group and the Labour MEPs who keep a low profile; the Lib Dem MEPs are fully involved. Our pro EU stance and our campaign for EU reform, give Lib Dem MEPs real credibility in the Parliament. It means a vote for them is a vote for action. 2) Decision Makers: The weather doesn't stop at country borders. In the EU Council of Ministers, where UK parliament signs off decisions made by the EU, Lib Dem UK Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, Ed Davey, is leading on greenhouse gas reduction measures. EU wide action on extreme Climate Change and many other environmental matters is more effective
