I have been outstanding supported of the EU till a few years ago… not only a extraordinary powers states are allowing it to gather without no constitutional changes is appalling. It is similar to in the US with the powers Congress keep giving to the presidency… and the courts all quiet. The worse of all, those superpowers are all intended for evil, curtail social freedoms, punish some “rogue” member, or fan a war… no for climate change or really tackled big tech.
That Europeans elected in the last election a completely different EU representation across all Europe and still these new elect representatives select Ursula to lead the Commission again screams the lack of democratic mandate in the continent.
Why I have a feeling these top leaders are vetted by some obscure entity before been presented and no candidates that actually have a brain are available to be elected… it reminds me also how Dominique Strauss-Kahn that was posed to lead the EU was charged in a sexual assault…
