EU constituency

An attempt to break barriers of language and tradition by creating an EU constituency is doomed to failure.

Creating a separate EU constituency is an artificial way to try to create a European demos.

They are for the representation of EU citizens living in a particular EU constituency.

North West England, as a single EU constituency, elects 8 representatives to the European Parliament.

It forms part of the UK Parliamentary Constituency of York Outer and EU Constituency of Yorkshire and the Humber.

As Europe looks today, with the lack of an EU-wide media debate, differences in language, culture and political traditions, it goes without saying that the EU is not ready to create an EU constituency.

According to the measure, proposed by British liberal MEP Andrew Duff, a small part of the MEPs are be elected with a trans-national European lists thus forming an EU constituency.
