The EU is not a democracy. It has some of the trappings of one - a

can't easily be removed. But that Parliament can neither initiate nor
repeal legislation. Those powers reside with the unelected Commission,
which unsurprisingly, therefore, behave like any powerful body or
person in the situation: like an oligarchy.

Ah - right. So it's not Germany ruling the roost today, then?
