Sir, – Patrick Smyth wrote recently about apathy among voters in relation to the forthcoming European elections ("Apathy rivals populism as an agent of European change", Analysis, April 20th). Apathy is hardly surprising. I recently emailed our sitting MEPs about their stances on legislation before the European Parliament, and the one answer I got was from Brian Crowley. – Yours, etc,
PATRICK SNEYD,
Tallaght, Dublin 24.
