But you don't vote for that representative

or wut

"representative"

eu parliament is segregated from representative

are govs representantives or not?

MEPs cant actually do a whole lot other than make suggestions

Let's say the the PM/president had to choose someone who would choose the person who chooses the Commissioner

those suggestions can be ignored

anyway i said id fuck off

Would that be democratic?

What's the line?

What's the point where you say okay, that's not democratic

people vote for gov-------->PM/gov------>chooses commisioner

That's not democratic, though

sorry but we live in a world of representative democracies

direct democracy is not available yet

for millions of people

A representative can pass legislation, etc.

That's fine

But how can they choose someone for the most important job, basically a higher position than their own, without anyone voting for it?

Direct democracy sounds like a complete nightmare.

we the people give them that power

by voting for them

to become goverment

Yes, but you don't vote for the actual commissioners

how is this not democratic

There is a layer of representation which is redundant

Again, I'm saying if there were 5 layers or 12 layers, what would be the line where it would not be okay?

Like a person that chooses a person who chooses a person who chooses a person...

dunno how many times i can say the same thing tbh

So you'd be fine with 3 or 4 layers of choosing?

i m fine with the system as is

voting for the commisioner wouldnt be bad

but still

Why wouldn't it be better for the president/PM to propose a few commissioners and the people to vote for the person they want to represent them?

we can change anything we dont like moving forward

I think we should just have a world war

yes tbh

and nuke britain

Greeks are jealous of the UK
