Happy to provide some thoughts on the impact of #Brexit on the @Europarl_EN at today's panel "The future of Europe" of the #epwahlsammelband2019 conference at @unidue. 
@Europarl_EN @unidue @MichaelKaeding @JSchmaelter @foederalist The paper's results in a nutshell: Brexit has important implications for the @Europarl_EN over the coming years, both institutionally and politically. First and foremost, the EP will lose its British members and thus reduce its size from 751 to 705 MEPs. (1/8)
However, and even more important, the composition of the EP's political groups and its internal balance of power is set to change noticeably. For example, after #Brexit the ID would become the 4th largest group, putting the Greens/EFA on the 5th position. (2/8)
