The European Union is run by un-elected bureaucrats, the people that are voted in as MEP's have no real power in the creation of the new laws. The bills / laws are created by "special interests".
So even if i wrote to my MEP and got them on side, they could only amend the proposed law, if the majority agreed. (Highly unlikely)
The European Union is a complete joke and needs to collapse.
Spreading the word about how fkd up it is and / or entering into lawful rebellion is how we fight back.
