Party Applications to form PEPPs 30-Sep-2011

CONSIDER AESOP The Lion & The Fox:

The EU was failing and was corrupt. So they pretended to be handing out money, which was just a ruse to make the greedy come to help progress their scam, but the strings attached were binding if hard to see.
The EUroRealists also came to see the offer, but didn't join a PEPP wishing to deal with The EU from outside its political clutches.
The EU asked the EUroRealists why they didn't come in as it was so lavishly rewarded and comfortable living on bribes.
The EUroRealists replied, 'Because we can see the tracks of those going in, but they are destroyed and there are no tracks showing they survived.'

Other people's lives are lessons in how we can avoid danger: it is easy to enter the house of a powerful man, but once you are inside, it may already be too late to get out.

28-Jun-2011 - Legality of Pan EU Party funding in UK/EU elections

 28-Jun-2011 - Legality of Pan EU Party funding in UK/EU elections

Legality of Pan EU Party funding in UK/EU elections.

Paul Perrin made this Freedom of Information request to Electoral Commission
Currently waiting for a response from Electoral Commission, they must respond promptly and normally no later than 26 July 2011 (details).

Dear Electoral Commission,

I understand that 'Pan EU Parties' (PEP) are allowed to run in and
to campaign in elections to the European Union (EU) parliament.

I also understand that people who would be barred by law from
donating to a UK party, are perfectly free to make donations to
these PEPs.

I would like to know if you have undertaken any work looking at
this situation which appears to by-pass laws specifically brought
in by the UK parliament at Westminster to keep elections in the UK
uncontaminated by money from dubious sources.

So can you tell me if any work has been done, if any work is in
progress, or if any work is planned to look at this? If so can you
provide me with details of what they work was/is or will be and any
terms of reference and any available results?

Yours faithfully,

Paul Perrin
