About Barbara BONTE

Barbara Bonte represents Belgium in the European Parliament as a member of the Patriots for Europe political group, a right-wing nationalist coalition that advocates for national sovereignty and opposes further European integration. She belongs to Flemish Interest, Belgium's largest Flemish nationalist party that promotes Flemish independence and maintains a strong anti-immigration stance. Flemish Interest has historically been one of Belgium's most controversial political movements due to its separatist agenda and populist positions. Her consistent presence in parliamentary proceedings reflects her dedication to representing her constituents' interests within the European legislative process, even as her party and political group frequently oppose mainstream European Union policies and initiatives.

Methodology

Attendance is calculated based on roll-call votes in plenary sessions of the European Parliament. Committee votes are excluded. Abstaining counts as present; not voting counts as absent. Sittings for which the Parliament officially excused a Member (Rule 162, illness, family, official mission, or maternity) are credited, not counted as absences. Notable votes are selected based on significance, close outcomes, and high participation.
