lmao imagine believing MEPs have power
Lithuania alone can stop a legislation that all other EU countries support

The parliament is only part of the EU, and the lack of power in parliament is exactly the reason why individual nations have so much power
Power to do what?
Postpone a vote?
Only to have to vote on it later?
The EU parliament lacks many powers compared to national parliaments
one crucial example would be the ability to create laws
Which are created by...?
but that is designed so the parliament cannot override individual nation states
@Fitzydog Do you know anything about the internal workings of the EU?
Yes, somewhat
I'm asking Socratic questions
Good for you
When was the last time say Lithuania created a law that passed
MEPs can't do shit, except vote yes or no on a piece of legislation that none of them proposed.
Lithuania doesn't create a law.
Nation states can suggest legislation to the comission
Who?
Who exactly
The european comission?
Okay my bad when was the last time they suggested legislation
The comission?
like every single piece of legislation
And who makes up the commission?
The EU parliament appoints a president and he picks his "ministers" from nation states
Im not quite sure but i think it's one for each nation
So the people who propose legislation are nameless bureaucrats who are unelected, and MEPs are forced to continue voting until the proposed legislation is passed.
It's a fucking kangaroo court
The people who propose legislation is ellected by the parliament just as Sanchéz is ellected by the spanish parliament
The 'Commission' is actually in charge, and MEPs are just there for show to appease the people
Yes, the commission has absolutelly no checks at all
it's a complete rougue institution made of random people
from the streets
