Let's be accurate here - there weren't three MEPs, there was one.
You held the meeting during the run up to the European Elections, and
Patricia McKenna, who was a sitting MEP, turned up and spoke. Also
speaking were Ivana Bacik and one of the minor independent candidates
whose name escapes me.
None of the three are currently MEPs. Patricia McKenna lost her
seat, and Ivana didn't win one.
