Good luck if you do 
I hate the system whereby the UK currently elects it's MEPs. F***ing abominable and that's swearing
In 2004, the Northeast voted 34.1% Labour; 18.6% Conservative and 17.8% Lib Dem and what did we get? One Labour, one Tory and a Lib Dem. STV would be preferable to the closed party list system. Indeed, it's the system I find objectionable rather than the result

The problem is that the Northeast is too small. It should be combined with Yorkshire and The Humber (or with the Northwest, but I think the former would be more popular).
