3 of the 4 main parties in my country have a Euro sceptic outlook and only the SDLP are pro European. I have the chance to vote for UUP DUP Sinn Fein and the SDLP plus some stupid candidates. It looks like the 3 candidates who will win the 3 European seats for Northern Ireland will be Euro sceptics so does that mean this country should withdraw from the EU!? I hope so..... |
Well they could be described as 'Euro-sceptic' I suppose, but I don't think any of the three main 'Euro-sceptic' parties are actually advocating pulling out of the EU, for example, with PSF, who are traditionally seen as against Europe really aren't. They're critical of many aspects of EU and directions it has taken over recent years (and rightly so are critical). They're anti centralisation of power, and militarisation of the Union. DUP are arguing for the pound to be kept, etc. as it infringes on sovereignty.
Maybe some of the other less known candidates in the occupied counties are advocating pulling out of the EU, but they'll make no impact. My guess is simliar to yours I think, with the three big parties taking seats in the 6 counties at the expense of SDLP. And PSF may take as many as three seats (six counties, Dublin, North-west) or possibly none
