Non UK EU nationals living in the UK can vote in the European Parliamentary Elections due to be held in the UK on 23 May. However even if they are registered to vote in the UK for local council elections, if they want to vote for a UK MEP they have to complete a separate form and deliver it to their local electoral registration office by 7 May.

Every 5 years since 1979 voters in Lincolnshire have had the opportunity to elect Members of the European Parliament. The next elections are due to be held across Europe between 23 May and 26 May. A total of 751 MEPs currently represent more than 512 million people from 28 member states. The UK has 73 seats. If a Brexit deal is not agreed beforehand, the UK will take part in elections on Thursday 23 May 2019.

We share Nick Boles's frustrations that so many of his parliamentary colleagues have continuously failed to seek a compromise that the narrowness of the 2016 referendum result demanded. Indeed, the actions of the Government to seek to appease a small element within it's party ranks, instead of promoting a solution that the whole country might be able to unite behind is one of the reason's why support for a People's Vote on the final deal has continued to gain momentum. We recognise the huge political price that Nick Boles has paid in order to promote a compromise, including his own compromise to support the proposal for a confirmatory vote in one final attempt to secure support for Common Market 2.0.
