Due to the farce that is Brexit, this election is almost certainly not going to happen, so its existence is a clear WP:CRYSTAL violation. I have no problem with it being restored if by some miracle the elections do happen, but for the meantime, it should be replaced by a redirect to European Parliament election, 2019, where it is explained several times that the UK is not electing any members (I had attempted to redirect it (and it was previously a redirect for over a year for the aforementioned reason), but this was reverted with a suggestion to go to AfD).

The remaining 27 British seats ought to be re-distributed among the 14 EU countries that are slightly under-represented, to even out current inequalities in their representation in the House, says the committee."Ought to be", the lead section reflects this. The announcement of the £829,000 was made in May, and the EU Withdrawal bill has suffered 15 defeats in the House of Lords since.
As an exception, even highly speculative articles about events that may or may not occur far in the future might be appropriate, where coverage in reliable sources is sufficient. There is sufficient reliable source coverage to satisfy WP:GNG, and this is the most sensible place to include the material about e.g. set-aside funding. Ralbegen ( talk) 16:43, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
In February 2018, the European Parliament voted to decrease the number of MEPs from 751 to 705, after the United Kingdom withdraws from the European Union on the current schedule.- not worth keeping the link." I think there is less of a temptation to do that if the link goes to a full article. -- The Vintage Feminist ( talk) 05:56, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
