Regardless-They have an undemocratic system when only one candidate is put forward for confirmation by MEP’s. The EU is undemocratic and you cannot refute this fact, so perhaps, stop trying.

Spot on. MEP’s got to vote on a nomination by someone not even on a ballot paper. A failing German minister. The EU Council ignored the lead candidate system, designed to stem the very concept of accusations of the EU being undemocratic.
We can't brag on democracy either. The next PM is being chosen by 0.2% of the population, some of whom have received more than one vote ! Way to go democracy UK !

As for the EU, the recent EU elections bases on a PR system is far more democratic than our first past the post, where depending on which constitutency you're in your vote is pointless.

Try moving the goal posts again as the EU win on democracy
