  Odd choice I don't see how she can carry out the duties of an MP and an MEP at the same time.

  There are ways, what you have to think about if the UK does get the vote and comes out of the EU she gets in she will still have a seat of power ,in fact that is a very good move.Which I would support.

  There is very little likelihood of us coming out of the EU in the foreseeable future so she will just coin it in.

  If Janice is elected she'll stand down as MEP.
  
  Incidentally Howard, what years were you at DGSB?

  Never David, Facebook decided that, they also decided I am in my 20's.
  
  Incidentally I have been stopped a few times by people who thought I was a former head at the grammar, never even went to a grammar school let alone run one.

  Indeed one can't polish a turd, more importantly have been reading today of another UKIP MEP standing for the commons next May. Has said he will give up his current job if he gets elected but how do by elections work for the EU?
  
  How does proportional representation work in this case?

  The last EU by-election was held in 1998.
  
  Now we're into proportional representation they don't happen - someone is selected by magic
