UK MEPs and their staff in Brussels are in stuck in limbo as Theresa May plans ti avoid European Parliament elections.
British Members of the European Parliament in Brussels are in a growing state of limbo amid uncertainty over whether the United Kingdom will participate in the upcoming European elections next month.
However, May requested a flexible extension that would allow to the UK to leave the EU before June 30 and crucially, pull out of European Parliament elections as late as May 22, just one day before they get underway., with political parties beginning the process of picking candidates including current MEPs who live and work in Brussels.
Seb Dance, a Labour MEP for London, told BI"lots of people are living in complete limbo" as politicians in Westminster continue to fumble the UK's exit from the EU. "Presumably the Parliament will accept my request to extend it again, but the uncertainty is pretty tough and there's nothing we can do about it," the MEP for northwest England said.
