    <description>Beyond the plenary speeches and referendum rallies, UKIP&#039;s MEPs sat on committees, tabled amendments and attended meetings. This data-led review of the 2014–2020 term asks whether that quieter work left a substantive mark or merely provided a backdrop to the headlines.</description>

    <description>UKIP&#039;s 2014 European Parliament intake used its maiden speeches to frame the arguments that would dominate the Brexit years. This archive review revisits ten debut contributions, from sovereignty and fisheries to regulation and the NHS, and asks which lines have worn well.</description>

    <title>After the Brussels Bubble: Tracking UKIP&#039;s 2014 MEP Cohort in 2026</title>

    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://ukipmeps.org/after-brussels-bubble-ukip-2014-mep-cohort-2026/</guid>
    <description>Twenty-four UKIP MEPs were elected in 2014. Twelve years on, the cohort reads like a map of the party&#039;s afterlife: a few national figures, several defectors, and many who left elected politics altogether.</description>

    <title>Bedfellows in Brussels: How UKIP&#039;s EFDD Group Rose, Ruled and Ruptured</title>

    <description>UKIP&#039;s European Parliament grouping was never a natural family. Archival speeches, group standing orders and roll-call cohesion data show what the EFD and EFDD experiments bought UKIP&#039;s MEPs, and what they cost.</description>

    <description>UKIP MEPs made the Common Fisheries Policy one of their most effective rhetorical targets, building alliances and a vocabulary that outlasted their time in Brussels. As the UK&#039;s fisheries debate continues in 2026, the archive shows which arguments survived and which did not.</description>

    <description>Archived European Parliament divisions show that UKIP&#039;s MEPs were never a single, obedient bloc. From civil-liberties reports to budget amendments, the record reveals a party managing tensions between its libertarian and populist instincts.</description>
