> Don't you have a right to vote for an elected representative?
Of course not. The EU parliament is just there to rubber-stamp the decisions coming from the undemocratically appointed commission. They can’t propose any laws or directives.
No voters would elect such a person like https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ursula_von_der_Leyen https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ursula_von_der_Leyen to a top office. She’s thoroughly incompetent, corrupt, self-entitled as it gets and has zero charisma (literally zero redeeming qualities).
