Results of the 2004 European Elections in the East Midlands

Previously MEP (Conservative) for Lincolnshire from 1979 to 1994, Bill crossed the floor to the Lib Dems in 2000 because of the increasingly-negative and hopeless attitude of the Conservatives against Britain playing a leading role in Europe.

Bill serves on two parliamentary committees - Citizens Freedoms (which in the UK we would call Home Affairs) which deals with Immigration, Asylum, Policing, Visas, Criminal Law, etc. across the EU as a whole; and the Committee on Industry.

Bill coined the now much-used phrase "Democratic Deficit" in a pamphlet in the 1980s.

He is married with two children, and the author of four books (details on his own website www.newton-dunn.com)
