PVV MEP punished for vote fraud

Today, 17:34

PVV MEP Marcel de Graaff has been fined for vote fraud. De Graaff in October used the voting card of Marine Le Pen of the French National Front in order not to lose her vote. Voting for another MEP is prohibited. It happens rarely that someone violates this rule.

… When De Graaff was held accountable by Parliament president Martin Schulz, he said he had acted out of “courtesy”. The PVV party and the National Front in the European Parliament are in the same caucus …

De Graaff must pay an amount equal to five times the daily allowance for an MEP: 1,500 euros.
