The EU is not perfert, but either is any democratic process, look at ours in Britain, Labour recieved 35% of the popular vote yet have over 50% of the MP's, that is far more unfair.

'The EU ELECTIONS are not democratic : In a real democracy every vote has the same weight.
38,000 votes are needed in Luxemburg to chose an MEP. Thats 16 times more political clout than a German voter where 628,000 are needed !'
Germany is a much bigger country, if only 38,000 votes were needed in germany to get in an MEP they would have well over 100 MEP's alone, we need to keep MEP's minimal while still representing europe fairly, its all about balancing size with No of MEP's.

We need army to to match Russia. We need strong army like USA, un need strong energy policy. Not to kiss russian but for gas and oil.

1.The EU ELECTIONS are not democratic : In a real democracy every vote has the same weight.

2.Europeans were never asked if they wanted an EU parliament & an un-elected legislative.
3.Most Europeans (in recent polls) do NOT WANT the EU to be given more power.
4.Why plan for a European army unless the EU is to become an `Empire ´(Barrosso).
Don't vote

I just watched a feature on Euronews about working in foreign countries. It was as worthy of the title "news" as Tom & Jerry. Dull, bland, droning propaganda which would make Goebals or Stalin look subtle by comparison. We're not living in the 1930s anymore so quit all this crap.

I think England should have the right to leave the EU. That would be a great relief for the rest of us.

SPREAD THE WORD
If citizens vote for the "WAI D" Your decision party. Citizens will be in charge.
Only one commitment.
The candidates of the movement, if elected as MEPs, will undertake at their own expense the creation of an internet site where citizens will have the chance to express, their own opinions.
The citizen will have the opportunity to propose laws and amendments and to give orders directly to their own MEP, putting to the vote of other citizens their own proposals and ideas.

'laws in Europe' by this the President meant the laws enacted by the European Union. In 25% Union regulation can be passed without consent from the European Parliament with the lisbon treaty this will be brought back to 0%. This is what Pöttering meant. He was speaking about a percentage of Union legislation not about 'national laws' as you stated.
-
If the `figure of 75% is a fairy tale´,then the President of the EU parliament....is a frog prince :
`If we were not that influential today,then we would not be the legislator of 75% of all laws in Europe,and with the Lisbon Treaty in nearly 100% of all cases´.
(Hans-Geert Pöttering responding to President Klaus`speech in the EU parliament)

The EU flag and anthem is a fraud against every EU country. The European people have been lead behind the light by their own governm, and are now trapped in the EU straitjacket.
We know whats the best for the European people Everybody are equal Lets control the production Lets say that the EU has been a success
Great achievements have been made in countries with free markets less governmental controls strong democracy. I hope you dont waste your vote on June 4th. Go UKIP!
