Changes in members or affiliation[edit]

  • Alyn Smith won a seat in the House of Commons for SNP in December 2019. He therefore ceased to be an MEP for Scotland then. Heather Anderson was nominated to replace him as MEP. Anderson only served as MEP from 28 January until the Brexit date on 31 January, a total of 4 days.
  • Annunziata Rees-Mogg, Lance Forman, Lucy Harris and John Longworth left the Brexit Party and joined the Conservatives. Louis Stedman-Bryce and Andrew England Kerr changed their affiliation from the Brexit Party to be independent.
