Guy Verhofstadt is a MEP, they are elected directly by the people.
Peter Mandelson was a commissioner, they are nominated by member countries.
Jean-Claude Juncker was the President of European Council, to become one he needed approval of most of its members which are heads of government or state of member countries.
The fuck is EU supposed to do with them then? Tell voters a MEP they directly picked in an election is thrown out, tell UK their chosen commissioner is thrown out and tell over 20 country heads in European Council the President they chosen is thrown out?
