Unfortunately, the vast majority of MEPs will vote as directed by their political grouping, irrespective of their personal views or those of their constituents. You may be lucky enough to find one of the very few whose principles outweigh their greed but the chances are vanishingly small. This, regrettably, is the nature of the wholly undemocratic farce that is the European Union, whose members are, in the main, concerned only with extending their influence and lining their pockets at your and my expense.
