UKIP MEPs Score Reasonably Well in Votes to Reform Gravy Train

EU Politix reports today on the records of MEPs in voting to reform the disgraceful system of perks and expense abuses within the European Parliament, the article titled Centre-right backs EU 'gravy train' is linked from here.

The three UKIP MEPs record is as follows:-

FARAGE Nigel Paul GB 70 56 73 63
BOOTH Graham H. GB 68 50 73 48
TITFORD Jeffrey William GB 68 55 71 83

The figures quoted alongside each name are percentages for: Firstly all Reform Votes, secondly regarding the 'Seat of the EP', thirdly reforming MEPs Statute and Expenses and lastly the percentage turnout in Reform votes. The details of the study may be found from this link to the Euroepean Parliament Reform site.

Note the Tories Centre Right Group only achieved a startlingly low figure of 23 per cent, with their new gruppenfuehrer Hans-Gert Poettering, tipped to be EP President (in a typical European Politics carve-up type deal) for the second half of the next term a miserable and lowly thirteen per cent. Summaries of the Conservative Party record will be placed on the blog Teetering Tories and on the overall report on The Strasbourg Cesspit.
