I can understand where the EU might intervene in issues that affect EU treaties, principles and laws but do you have examples of where the EU parliament, commission or council have broken the principles of subsidiarity?

Rubbish and you know it. We voted for a small percentage of MEPs and ours don't want federalisation and domination of the European Parliament over ours. We look like them but don't think like them.


As to your question - what's the current situation got to do with my point about their drive to federalisation? The MEPs are right behind the EC's game.

…. and ours shouldn't take years because we start on the same page. It's just they are bloody minded and intent on punishing us.
