I am living in the EU member country. I voted today on the right wing party but frankly I do not care at all who is going to take the seats in the EU parliament.

for me it was mostly the information I wanted to give to my country government. I wanted to make a clear signal that I do not like the way the government is dealing with crises issues.

I would like to know how was about other ATS members from EU. do you really find it important to have a strong EU parliament. do you find yourself dependend from that elections?

even with 60% legistation coming to your country from Brussel I do not think it matters if it is ruled by right or left wing side.
they are producing those silly Bills whatever side they work for.

or I am wrong about it?
