Much as I will be happy for the tories and labour to get a kicking from Brexit party, these elections are symbolic and won't change shit.

This is because the EU parliament has no power, it is merely a talking shop designed to give the illusion of democratic accountability.

It makes no legislation nor, it can only review legislation handed down from the EC commission but it can't stop it if either the EC commission or Council of Minister wants it to go through.

So it's a complete waste of time, true power resides in the commission and only nationalist govts prepared to leave the EU will bring it down.

It's not a complete waste of time because it will give a wider platform to new independent MEPs to let the public know what is going on. Especially for smaller country's like us.
