Jury Team wins 0.5% of EU votes

Jury Team canvasser
Jury Team MEPs would have no party allegiance

The Jury Team umbrella group of non-party candidates collected 78,569 votes in the European Parliament elections.

The party's 59 candidates achieved a 0.5% share of the UK vote, finishing 13th out of the parties putting up candidates across the UK.

The Jury Team aimed to give independent candidates a platform from which to compete against the big parties.

The group says all MPs and MEPs elected would have no party allegiance and be free of parliamentary whips.
