but the EU:
- is intransparent and complex
- is slow to move when it matters the most
- is a supranational entity that can overrule local legislature
- is in many regards a dubious democracy
- did not hold its promise of no more wars on its soil
- has frontex
- is a neoliberal economic bloc
- drives a parliament around between belgium and france for no other reason than pettiness and costs laughably high amounts in the process -
