More or less every person in a position of authority in the EU has not been directly elected, where is the popular vote for the commissioners or two of the three presidents ? The EU parliament has minute powers in reality, they are just there to rubber stamp the decisions if their superiors. If they dare to vote against a decision it just keeps being re presented

Does that mean you two old farts are going to sod off, or is it like a decent brandy, only bad for the young?
Sham or mock democracy at work. Never mind it fools and satisfies a lot of people.
