Absolutely not, there is no real democracy, The EU Commission is more like a private institution that has moved the power away from the EU citizens. It has created an illusion of a democracy by moving the citizen far away from insight and influence. The system is designed to maintain control within a closed circle, rather than one built on democratic accountability.

“It’s how it works” is not a reason to continue it.

Ursula von der Leyen's election is not a democratic process. At the very least it must be transparent, and it is not. This is just one of countless examples of lame democracy. Thank you Fidias for bringing these things to the attention of many. 🙏

“It’s how democracy works”, just shows how normal they think this is. Thank you 🙏🏽 for taking a step back and rethink this critically as it is not how democracy works. Ursula von der Leyen would never have been reelected if people would have had the choice to vote.

The EU, is not a representative democracy, the European Parliament and the European states are, and they ratify the Commissioners and the president. You only complain, actually don't know the system you work for and don't come with another solution, wtf is your agenda?

Non seulement cette bonne femme n'a aucune légitimité car l'UE actuelle est illégitime en France par le vote de 2005, mais en plus elle outrepasse ce qui est prévu dans son mandat. Alors la façon dont les techno-fachos de l'UE ont renouvelé son mandat est anecdotique.
