They got the committee chairperson they all claimed to prefer (cos a US Style Pres would be a symptom of their constant wet dream of a Euro super-state) and now they gurn and cry about it.

As per they keep seeing the proof that their Euro single state is a figment of their ridiculous narrow-minded imagination and instead of recognising it for what it is they, like game-saying kids, just ignore that and move on to carp and complain about the 180′ opposite position.

Apparantly this now ‘proves’ that the EU is not democratic.
Nevermind that an EU-wide election would create conflicts and stresses between the sovereign nation states and their peoples.
The reason why we have this so-called ‘democratic deficit’ is precisely because the sovereign nation states are determined to keep the lion’s share of the real power with themselves.

But unfortunately if you recognise & accept that it completely f**ks up the standard anti-EU message.
