I think it's completely understandable why UKIP MEPs don't involve themselves much in the machinations of the EU Parliament when they are against the whole thing in principle & their only reason for being there is to work towards getting the UK out!

I started to take the Votewatch quiz but I'm afraid it is heavily biased towards the assumption that we want to remain part of the EU so I found it quite irrelevant.

I will vote for UKIP on the 22nd. because their share of the vote will indicate their level of support (amongst the few who will bother to vote at all - but that applies to all parties I suppose) and maybe show the current political elite that their grip on power is not assured if they continue to ignore the views of a significant proportion of the electorate.
