ON MAY 22 we will all be offered the chance to have our say on who represents us in Europe.

Please don’t be one of those people who announce that: ‘If you ask me, they are all the same’.

If you don’t vote, let’s not hear a peep of complaint about EU legislation in the next five years – you will have had your chance and blown it.

Please also don’t vote for a protest candidate because you think it will upset those in Westminster or the Welsh Assembly.

This is the European Parliament, not a poll about what you think of current government policies.

Love it or loathe it much of our legislation comes from Europe.

MEPs now have a lot more power than they used to, so you need an MEP who is going to represent your views properly. So, please think about it really carefully.
