The1984 European Parliament election was the first since the inaugural election of 1979 and the 1981 enlargement of theEuropean Community to includeGreece. It was also the last before the accession of Spain andPortugal in 1986.

Results showed centre-left and right-wing MEPs profiting at the expense of the far-left and centre-right. The Socialists consolidated their position as the biggest group in the Parliament, and there were notable changes for the smaller groups, with far-right MEPs forming a group and the coalescence of the Green and Regionalist group known as "Rainbow". Overall turnout dropped to 61%. No majority was achieved.

Electoral system

[edit]

There was no single voting system for all member states; each of them adopted its own method, established by national law.

TheUnited Kingdom used a one-round (first-past-the-post) system of 78 constituencies inEngland,Wales andScotland, while inNorthern Ireland 3 proportional seats were allocated.Belgium,Ireland andItaly used a proportional system with subdivision of the territory into constituencies.Denmark,France,West Germany,Greece,Luxembourg and theNetherlands used a single national proportional system, although in the case of Denmark Greenland had its own constituency with the allocation of one seat and in the case of West Germany the three seats for theWest Berlin area were not directly elected but were chosen by theBerlin House of Representatives,given the particular status of the city.

Seat changes

[edit]

The number of seats was the same as before for each member state that took part in the 1979 election. Greece, which had joined in 1981, was allocated 24 new seats. This raised the number of seats to 434 from 410.

The Socialists increased their share by six seats to 130 seats, up from 124 before the elections. The Democratic Alliance (formerly Progressive Democrats) also made gains, up by seven to 29 seats. The People's Party's, the European Democrats, Communists and Liberals all lost seats. The French National Front and the Italian Social Movement founded a group called the "European Right": the first far-right group in the Parliament. TheTechnical Group of Independents was replaced by theRainbow Group, a mixture ofGreens and Regionalists.
