I'm not sure how the MEP system works...but you can't really expect MEP's to take action to come out of the EU.........that is like asking Turkeys to vote for Christmas.
The EU is a vast gravy train......and the MEP's are dipping their bread in it!

As for HMG over here........I am not being apologist, but they have had a lot on their plate to deal with.......and I am pretty sure that DC and NC don't really see eye to eye on lots of things so internal wrangling take up time and energy.

Maybe they just moan and whinge because they don't know what to do to get us out of the carp(intended). Like the engineers rule 'When you don't know what to do.....walk fast and look worried'.
Yet again I did not make it clear.. in the real world I would not expect any MEP's to vote for (or propose) any removal of the UK from the EU.. but seeing as they are by far in the strongest position from the UK to oppose some of the rulings the EU Parliment come up with I find it strange that they just buckle under and blame the last Government.. It all gets abit boring.....If the Tories really mean business then they should push for reform within the EU instead of whinging.
