No, it's the European Commission that yields the real power. The European Parliament in reality is controlled by the European Commission.

Manximus Aururaneus Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 (edited) It really doesn't matter anymore Rog - other than to those in denial. Denial, anger, acceptance - Give them time, it's the least we can do. Edited January 7, 2020 by Manximus Aururaneus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So surely every other elected MEP has the same right? Especially those that actually turn up unlike Farage et al who take the money and benefits but only turn up for "show piece" events. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ballaughbiker Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Quote What metrics can we all use to judge that? Dunno.... that GDP thingy nobody understands from 73 to now? Unemployment figures? All the benefits of the freedoms? That sort of stuff as opposed to .... a f.ing roulette wheel of unknown future fortune spun by Donny and his mates? I know which one I'd bet my commemorative 50p on. Still let's hope for the best eh? Be positive and all that. Believe more, have faith etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
