European Parliament elections



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_European_Parliament_election_in_the_United_Kingdom


The Brexit Party won the most votes and became the largest single national party in the European Parliament, being the dominant choice of those who had voted to leave the European Union. The votes of those who had voted to remain were more fragmented: the Liberal Democrats made substantial gains, finishing second nationally, while the Green Party and Scottish National Party also improved on their 2014 result, however, Change UK failed to win any seats. Compared to the 2014 result, the Labour Party and the Conservative Party suffered enormous losses, and the previously dominant UK Independence Party failed to elect any MEPs.
