MEPs are elected to which body?

MEPs are Members of the European Parliament, the European Union’s law-making chamber. They’re elected to represent people from EU member states and to participate in debating and passing EU laws. This sits outside the UK’s national Parliament (the House of Commons) and outside national bodies like a Senate or National Assembly. The European Parliament is the body they’re elected to, with representation from across the EU.
