	European Left - Some remarks concerning the creation of the Party of the European Left
		Many parties of the transforming European Left, after a phase of difficult reorientation of their politics after the upheavals of 1989/90, had reached the conclusion that it was high time to build up a more concrete collaboration, so as to convey a common profile to this European Left.
		There are many European debates around the question: who can and should be a member, how concrete does the profile have to be, and how do the national member parties guarantee inner-party democratic opinion formation and independence in such a European unified organisation, which should be more than just an umbrella organisation.
		For many Left-wingers an important upcoming date are the European elections, which for the Left forces also raise the challenge of defending their place as influential force in their respective countries.

	CIDSE News: 1999 European Parliament Elections
		In addition to its important role in the vote for the annual European Commission budget, the European Parliament has played and must continue to play a crucial role in the way development and humanitarian aid is implemented.
		The 1999 EP elections are scheduled to take place not only in the middle of the negotiation process concerning a new framework for relations with ACP countries, but also during the preparatory process of the integration of new countries into the EU, and just after the official implementation of the EURO, the European currency.
		European NGOs believe that the integration of new countries into the EU and the increasing partnership with close European neighbours should not come at the cost of the quality of the aid policies for low-income countries.

		Until a uniform election procedure - to be prepared by the European Parliament - will have taken effect, electoral regulations will continue to be based on any Member State's national provisions.
		In the Federal Republic of Germany, these are the law on elections to the European Parliament and the European electoral regulations, with much reference made to the Federal Electoral Law.

	CESNUR - "So Many Evil Things": Anti-Cult Terrorism via the Internet
		Jordan (1999, 117) points to the problem of having "so much information that the ability to understand it is impaired: the important cannot be distinguished from the unimportant, and too large amounts of information simply cannot be absorbed".
		On the other hand, as noted by Usarski (1999) with reference to Germany, the publication of inflammatory documents by both private organizations sponsored by government, and by the government itself, proclaiming that literally hundreds of cults are pure evil, and that the country is at war with them, is dangerous.
		However, as Hexham and Poewe (1999, 212-213, 219) have noted, although "attacks on respectable German politicians by members of Scientology" calling them "Nazis" were both "tasteless" and "counterproductive", it is indeed true that "some members of the German anti-cult movement threaten the noble cause of preserving democracy" they claim to serve.

		Fifteen European states are currently members of the EU, with 10 more due to join by mid-2004, a few more negotiating for membership and several more expected to commence negotiations at some stage in the future.
		Slavery under European rule began with importation of white European slaves (or indentured servants), was followed by the enslavement of local aborigines in the Caribbean, and eventually was primarily replaced with Africans imported through a large slave trade as the native populations declined through disease.
		In 1994 the European Court of Justice ruled that the country's law prohibiting women from working nights was not permissible and gave the Government until the end of the year to adapt its legislation to gender-neutral EU regulations.

		The one-sided results of the 2000 provincial election have served to nullify, at least for the present, one of the principal reforms brought in by the Progressive Conservative government in 1996.
		For instance, in the Irish elections of November 1982, 83 per cent of the votes cast helped to elect a candidate; Vernon Bogdanor contrasts this figure to the nearly 70 per cent of votes that were wasted in the British constituency of Barking in 1983.
		Iain McLean suggests that the introduction of PR into the Scottish parliament was eased by the fact that it was a newly created assembly; the forces of conservatism and inertia that might have been expected to play the spoiler in a change to PR in an established legislature were not present.

	European Parliament Elections 1999 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		The European Parliament was set up in 1975 and until the first direct elections in 1979, the parties sent their own representatives who included Winnie Ewing for the SNP, Russell (now Lord) Johnston for the Liberals and Sir Thomas (Tam) Dalyell for Labour.
		While Ms Walker-Shaw may be a competent union official, her behaviour in the by-election, accusing the SNP of racism and lying, on more than one occasion, about where she was born, made it abundantly clear that she lacked the political maturity and common sense necessary to represent half a million Scots.
		Although this was the by-election which nobody in the SNP wanted, it was a triumph for them and a severe setback for Labour with the European elections only seven months away.

		June 2004 saw a number of crucial elections to the European Parliament, to the GLA, for the Mayor of London and a number of local elections all across the UK.
		This is because the elections for the European Parliament, GLA and London Mayor all use some form of the system called Proportional Representation (PR).
		So in the European elections voters used one X to vote for the party or independent candidate of their choice and with Mayor elections people will get a 1st and 2nd choice.

	Important information for postal voters in the elections to the European Parliament 1999
		To ensure that the votes cast by postal ballot in the elections to the European Parliament on 13 June 1999 will be valid, the Federal Returning Officer recommends postal voters to strictly follow the instructions on the sheet of notes for postal voters which they have received together with the postal ballot documents.
		The blue voting envelope, together with the polling card, which has to carry the voter's place of residence, date of signing and his/her signature, will have to be put into the red ballot letter envelope.
		Postal voters may also deliver the postal ballot letter personally, or have it delivered by another person, to the address indicated on the ballot letter envelope; in such cases, too, the voter will bear the risk of the postal ballot letter not arriving in time.

	House of Commons - European Scrutiny - Seventh Report
		10.2 The Communication is intended to assess the application of the Directive to the June 1999 elections, highlight the main problems which arose, and promote examples of good practice in order to increase participation by EU citizens in the political life of the Member State in which they live.
		Such a system would be impractical in the UK as there is no requirement that citizens of other Member States must register their presence here with a central authority or register to participate in European Parliamentary elections.
		Difficulties in implementing this Article were encountered at the 1994 elections, and, although the system seems to have worked better in 1999, the Commission concludes that practical improvements are still needed.
