Make MEPs tell us what they do
We want to know what our representatives do in Brussells or Strasbourg. Each of us who vote in European elections has the right to know what our representaives do, if anything, to represent us for the great salaries and expenses they receive. Set up a website 'MEPSworkforyou' to tell us what is done in our name. If we do have a referendum about leaving the EU, this information would certainly help us to make an informed decision.
Why is this important?
I asked the MEPs for the North west what they did, by email before the last election, only two of them out of 8 replied, only one with a thoughtful response. I am prepared to believe that some of them work hard to earn their money but I receive no direct evidence of them representing me on a day to day basis. We have a website 'theyworkforyou' that tells each of us when our Mps ask a question in the House of Commons. Using this as a template, it ought to be quite cheap, given the resources of the EU, to set up a system that keeps all EU voters better informed.
